Abstract

I would like to thank the many graduate students and field technicians of the Trexler lab who assisted with this project in any way. There are many individuals who participated in the radio-tracking efforts that made this project possible. Tina Van Doornik, Erica Ascani, and Tom Granger braved mosquito swarms, countless thunderstorms, and sleepless nights while assisting with the 24-hour tracking portion of this project. I have many fond memories of our time on the L67-C; I am appreciative of their amity and commitment. I am also grateful for my many discussions with Mike Bush, who contributed to this work while conducting his own dissertation research. I would also like to thank Bradley Strickland and Abraham Smith for their companionship, insight, and encouragement through the years. I would like to express my gratitude towards Daniel Gann and Brittany Harris for their outstanding contribution to this project. Their efforts enhanced the mapping portion of this project and I am grateful for their time, extensive knowledge, and dedication. I would also like to thank my
