    Brood-rearing period cover use by wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) hens with broods and those without, in Gregory County, South Dakota, was determined in order to formulate management suggestions for grassland/riparian woodland habitat. Two hens with broods and 12 hens without broods were studies through telemetry and direct observations form 5 July through 2 August and 3 August through 17 August of 1982 and 1982. Vegetational data were collected in 1983. Hens with broods selected for the grass/forb-dominated understory and 52% open canopy of south-facing savannah woodlands while their broods were less than 4 weeks of age. After 4 weeks, broods moved to the shrubby understory and 7% open canopy of north-facing bur oak forest. Broods hens did not appear to use cultivated fields, farmsteads, or bottomlands, and grasslands were avoided or used in proportion to availability. Hens without broods used cultivated fields, farmsteads, and bottomlands in proportion to availability, generally avoided grasslands, and selected woodlands

    The Bar and Spiral Structure Legacy (BeSSeL) Survey: Mapping the Milky Way with VLBI Astrometry

    Full text link
    Astrometric Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observations of maser sources in the Milky Way are used to map the spiral structure of our Galaxy and to determine fundamental parameters such as the rotation velocity (Θ0\Theta_0) and curve and the distance to the Galactic center (R0_0). Here, we present an update on our first results, implementing a recent change in the knowledge about the Solar motion. It seems unavoidable that the IAU recommended values for R0_0 and Θ0\Theta_0 need a substantial revision. In particular the combination of 8.5 kpc and 220 \kms\, can be ruled out with high confidence. Combining the maser data with the distance to the Galactic center from stellar orbits and the proper motion of Sgr\,A* gives best values of R0_0 = 8.3 ±\pm 0.23 kpc and Θ0\Theta_0 = 239 or 246 ±\pm 7 \kms, for Solar motions of V_ \odot = 12.23 and 5.25 \kms, respectively. Finally, we give an outlook to future observations in the Bar and Spiral Structure Legacy (BeSSeL) Survey.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures.
