Title: Evidence of social learning mechanisms and teaching behavior of Atlantic spotted dolphins (Stenella frontalis) by mother dolphins foraging in the presence of calves.
Creator: Bortot, Courtney Elizabeth., Florida Atlantic University, Bjorklund, David F., Herzing, Denise L.
Abstract/Description: The present study examined the alteration of benthic foraging behavior by mother Atlantic spotted dolphins (Stenella frontalis) when foraging in the presence of their calves in comparison to the foraging behaviors of the mothers when the calves were not present. The mother dolphins chased prey significantly longer and made significantly more body-orienting movements during foraging in which calves were present. In 5 of the events where the calves were present the prey was not eaten by the...
Show moreThe present study examined the alteration of benthic foraging behavior by mother Atlantic spotted dolphins (Stenella frontalis) when foraging in the presence of their calves in comparison to the foraging behaviors of the mothers when the calves were not present. The mother dolphins chased prey significantly longer and made significantly more body-orienting movements during foraging in which calves were present. In 5 of the events where the calves were present the prey was not eaten by the mother, but instead the calves were allowed to pursue the prey and were confirmed to have eaten the prey in 3 of the foraging events, even though the calves were still nursing. Additionally, this altered foraging behavior only occurred in the presence of their naive calves. Therefore, the present study may be evidence of teaching as a potential social learning mechanism of foraging behavior by Atlantic spotted dolphins.

Title: Specific dynamic action in hatchling and post-hatchling green (Chelonia mydas) and loggerhead (Caretta caretta ) sea turtles.
Creator: Kowalski, Amy, Florida Atlantic University, Milton, Sarah L., Charles E. Schmidt College of Science, Department of Biological Sciences
Abstract/Description: Specific dynamic action (SDA) describes a post-feeding increase in oxygen consumption where most energy derived from food is allocated to post-absorptive processes, including growth and maintenance. SDA and growth in hatchling sea turtles is of special interest because they experience drastic changes in diet, oxygen availability and habitat during the first several months of life. This study investigated SDA variation between species and among age groups. SDA was quantified in two species of...
Show moreSpecific dynamic action (SDA) describes a post-feeding increase in oxygen consumption where most energy derived from food is allocated to post-absorptive processes, including growth and maintenance. SDA and growth in hatchling sea turtles is of special interest because they experience drastic changes in diet, oxygen availability and habitat during the first several months of life. This study investigated SDA variation between species and among age groups. SDA was quantified in two species of sea turtle (Chelonia mydas, Caretta caretta) at 7, 30, 60, & 90 days post-hatching. Turtles were fed a known amount of food, and oxygen consumption was monitored using a metabolic chamber. SDA percentage of total energy did not increase with age (species pooled), although magnitude of SDA was higher in C. mydas when compared to C. caretta (ages pooled). These results imply that SDA does not increase proportionally with age, and that hatchling C. mydas use more absolute energy for SDA than C. caretta .

Title: TIMELINE OF NUTRIENT INCORPORATION FROM BROODSTOCK DIET TO EGG IN CALIFORNIA YELLOWTAIL, SERIOLA DORSALIS.
Creator: Chin, Li Sun, Mejri, Sahar, Florida Atlantic University, Department of Marine Science and Oceanography, Charles E. Schmidt College of Science
Abstract/Description: Existing brood fish research has ascertained that eggs are heavily influenced by broodstock diet but there is no information regarding this timeline of nutritional incorporation. The objective of this study is to determine duration of nutritional incorporation from diet to eggs through fatty acids. Nine California Yellowtail (Seriola dorsalis) broodstock were fed alternating diets of commercial pellets (Vitalis PRIMA: Skretting) and cutbait. Biochemical and biometric data from spawns were...
Show moreExisting brood fish research has ascertained that eggs are heavily influenced by broodstock diet but there is no information regarding this timeline of nutritional incorporation. The objective of this study is to determine duration of nutritional incorporation from diet to eggs through fatty acids. Nine California Yellowtail (Seriola dorsalis) broodstock were fed alternating diets of commercial pellets (Vitalis PRIMA: Skretting) and cutbait. Biochemical and biometric data from spawns were collected and analyzed for differences and similarities throughout the alternating diets. Eggs were observed to selectively incorporate higher sources of linolenic and linoleic acid from the pelleted diet, and eicosapentaenoic acid from the cutbait diet. Interestingly, results showed overall fatty acids from both diets were fully incorporated by eggs within 9 days following the diet switch. These findings provided new insight towards the selective incorporation of nutrients and will open new doors for future broodstock nutrition research.

Title: The effects of a garbage-supplemented diet on the reproductive success of the White Ibis, Eudocimus albus (L.).
Creator: Rumbold, Darren George., Florida Atlantic University, Adams, Ralph M.
Abstract/Description: The reproductive success of White Ibises, Eudocimus albus (L.) was studied during the 1988 and 1989 nesting seasons at a wading bird colony in Florida. Evidence suggests that the diets of both adult and nestling Ibises included garbage from a nearby dump. The mean clutch size was 2.5 +- 0.72 in 1988 and 2.6 +- 0.72 in 1989. The probability of a nest surviving to produce at least one 10-day-old nestling was 45.8% and 54.1% for 1988 and 1989, respectively. Success was higher for nests on...
Show moreThe reproductive success of White Ibises, Eudocimus albus (L.) was studied during the 1988 and 1989 nesting seasons at a wading bird colony in Florida. Evidence suggests that the diets of both adult and nestling Ibises included garbage from a nearby dump. The mean clutch size was 2.5 +- 0.72 in 1988 and 2.6 +- 0.72 in 1989. The probability of a nest surviving to produce at least one 10-day-old nestling was 45.8% and 54.1% for 1988 and 1989, respectively. Success was higher for nests on islands at the periphery of the colony than on islands more centrally located. This resulted from reduced interactions between nesting Ibises and Cattle Egrets (Bubulcus ibis) and, reduced egg predation by grackles (Quiscalus spp.) at the periphery of the colony. Both clutch size and reproductive success were within the ranges previously reported for Ibises at other colonies that did not supplement their diets with garbage.

Title: (Re)making men, representing the Caribbean Nation: authorialIndividuation in works by Fred D’Aguiar, Robert Antoni, andMarlon James.
Creator: Gifford, Sheryl C., Machado, Elena, Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters, Department of English
Abstract/Description: This dissertation proposes that West Indian contemporary male writers develop literary authority, or a voice that represents the nation, via a process of individuation. This process enables the contemporary male writer to unite the disparities of the matriarchal and patriarchal authorial traditions that inform his development of a distinctive creative identity.

Show moreThis dissertation proposes that West Indian contemporary male writers develop literary authority, or a voice that represents the nation, via a process of individuation. This process enables the contemporary male writer to unite the disparities of the matriarchal and patriarchal authorial traditions that inform his development of a distinctive creative identity. I outline three stages of authorial individuation that are inspired by Jung’s theory of individuation. The first is the contemporary male writer’s return to his nationalist forebears’ tradition to dissolve his persona, or identification with patriarchal authority; Fred D’Aguiar’s “The Last Essay About Slavery” and Feeding the Ghosts illustrate this stage. The second is his reconciliation of matriarchal (present) and patriarchal (past) traditions of literary authority via his encounter with his forebears’ feminized, raced shadow; Robert Antoni’s Blessed Is the Fruit evidences this process. The third is the contemporary male writer’s renunciation of authority defined by masculinity, which emerges as his incorporation of the anima, or unconscious feminine; Marlon James’s The Book of Night Women exemplifies this final phase of his individuation.
