<p>Ecology and Management of Breeding Waterfowl was first published in 1992. In August of 1987, the International Symposium on the Ecology and Management of Breeding Waterfowl was held in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. It was organized by the staff of the Delta Waterfowl and Wetlands Research Station in recognition of the fiftieth year of research that would be conducted through that institution in 1988. A major goal was to review the progress that had been made in this field during the previous five decades of research in various subject areas within the broader scope of breeding waterfowl ecology. This volume represents the final versions of the nineteen plenary papers that have been revised and updated since the symposium.</p>

<p>Snow Geese: Grandeur and Calamity on an Arctic Landscape chronicles the fascinating life of the lesser snow goose, from Gulf Coast marshes through the farmlands of the U.S. and Canadian Great Plains to Arctic breeding areas. Snow goose populations have grown dramatically since the mid 20th century; today the lesser snow goose is the most abundant Arctic-nesting goose in the world. Its abundance has wrought serious and long-term degradation on the Arctic habitats upon which the geese depend for sustenance. The degradation threatens the future of the snow goose and all the other species of resident and migratory wildlife that share these habitats. Snow Geese: Grandeur and Calamity on an Arctic Landscape is intended to help the reader understand the causes and consequences of these changes as well as the spectacular beauty of the snow goose and the places in which it lives. That task is made easier by 100 photographs that illustrate this book, photographs taken by some of North America's best wildlife photographers and by students and scientists that know these birds intimately. (10 3/4 x 8 1/4, 96 pages, color photos)</p>
