National Science Board; Sunshine Act Meetings; Notice, 50273 [2011-20643]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 156 / Friday, August 12, 2011 / Notices (2) Would like to increase the 45 adult birds to 55 with TDR/satellite tags. The addition of 10 birds allows for potential instrument failure and the need to maintain an overall sample size of 45+ birds with working TDRs each season. (3) Given the cold temperatures at in Antarctica, especially Cape Crozier, it is very difficult to collect blood from the leg or flipper of a penguin in the short time period needed for measuring corticosterone levels. They would like to switch to drawing blood from the jugular vein. Dr. Lisa Balance has extensive experience with penguin physiology and jugular blood draw techniques and will deploy with the team to refresh their training in this blood draw technique. (4) Follow chicks from the 55 adults equipped with TDR instruments through the creching stage, which has never been studied. They will need to individually mark chicks using ‘‘T-bar anchor tags’’ (or Fish tags) during the first weighing. By studying the chicks at this stage to adult would help to determine a more accurate measure of reproductive success. The tag will be removed, however if the chick is not found, the tag will eventually wear off. (5) Finally, they plan to extract ∼3 feathers from the backs of adults with TDRs and PIT tags in order to determine sex using genetic analysis, as well as to relate melanin levels to bird condition..
