Download or read book The Biogeochemistry of Blue, Snow, and Ross' Geese written by Harold Carsten Hanson and published by Carbondale : Published by Southern Illinois University Press for the Illinois Natural History Survey. This book was released on 1976 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Postulating a new technique—feather mineral pattern analysis—for determining the geographic origins and distributions of wild goose populations, this book makes a unique contribution to wildlife research and management. Of special interest are the authors’ efforts to relate feather mineral concentrations to the physical and chemical translocations of mineral elements from the rock substrates of the various breeding grounds of wild geese, to the soils and the parts of the ecosystems in which they live, to their final deposition in feather keratin.
