Abstract:
Most megapode species rake organic material into mounds in which they incubate their eggs. To test predictions of a model proposed for temperature regulation in incubation mounds (the ‘Seymour Model’), I collected data on the physical characteristics of these mounds of the sympatric wattled brush-turkey (Aepypodius arfakianus), brown-collared talegalla (Talegalla jobiensis) and New Guinea megapode (Megapodius decollatus) in Papua New Guinea. Data from mounds supported several predictions of the Seymour Model: (1) there is a critical mass needed for mounds to heat to incubation temperatures, (2) mounds are stable homeotherms, (3) mounds cool after they are abandoned, and (4) mounds with different proportions of organic material differ in size. Data did not support predictions that (1) mound size will change with changes in ambient air temperature, and (2) mounds in high-rainfall areas will be convex to shed water. Mounds of New Guinea megapodes and brown-collared talegallas were similar and differed from those of wattled brush-turkeys in size, composition, temperature profile and location of eggs. These differences were consistent with the Seymour Model. The Seymour Model is robust enough to explain differences in mounds of sympatric megapodes, which differ in their taxonomy, behaviour and ecology.

Abstract I report nonrandom selection of sites for incubation mounds and interspecific sharing of mounds by three sympatric megapodes (Wattled Brush-turkey [Aepypodius arfakianus], Brown-collared Talegalla [Talegalla jobiensis] and New Guinea Megapode [Megapodius decollatus]) in the Crater Mountain Wildlife Management Area in the eastern highlands of Papua New Guinea. Talegallas used mounds concurrently with New Guinea Megapodes, and renovated brush-turkey mounds after the latter species had finished breeding. New Guinea Megapodes and brush-turkeys did not use the same mounds. Analysis of 18 environmental variables at 80 mound sites and 91 random points showed that (1) mound sites of the three species differed significantly from random points. Mounds were associated with large trees and in less disturbed habitat, characteristics which contribute to the functioning of the mound. (2) Mound sites of the three species differed from each other. Brush-turkey sites were steeper, and had fewer and smaller trees in the mound and more herbs in the surrounding forest than those of the other two species. New Guinea Megapode and talegalla sites were not clearly separated. (3) Some important environmental variables had significant effects of study location and location × species, suggesting that inter- and intraspecific differences in mound sites are dependent on the habitat in which the mounds are located. Given this, caution should be applied to generalizations about widespread species from site-selection studies in a small subset of habitats. I recommended landowners be advised not to locate gardens or cut trees close to mounds, and exclude some areas from logging concessions and mining leases. Selección de Sitios para Montículos de Incubación en Tres Megapódidos Simpátricos de Papua Nueva Guinea Resumen. Se reporta la selección no azarosa de sitios para incubación y como comparten estos sitios tres especies simpátricas de la familia de Megapodiidae (Aepypodius arfakianus, Talegalla jobiensis y Megapodius decollatus) en tres sitios en el área de manejo de vida silvestre Crater Mountain en las tierras altas del este de Papua Nueva Guinea. Individuos de Talegalla usaron los sitios al mismo tiempo que Megapodius, pero utilizaron sitios de Aepypodius después que ésta los abandonara. Un análisis sobre 18 características ambientales de 80 sitios y 91 puntos ubicados al azar indicó que (1) Las características ambientales de los sitios de incubación de las tres especies fueron significativamente diferentes de las registradas en puntos al azar. Los sitios de incubación se concentraron en áreas con árboles grandes y en áreas con menos perturbación que los puntos azarosos, factores que contribuyen a la función del sitio. (2) Las tres especies utilizaron sitios diferentes: Aepypodius utilizó sitios con mayor pendiente, con menos árboles y de menor tamaños, y con mayor cobertura herbacea en el bosque circundante, que las otras dos especies. Los sitios de Megapodius y de Talegalla no se distinguieron claramente uno de otro. (3) Algunas variables ambientales importantes tuvieron efectos significativos de ubicación y de ubicación × especies, lo cual sugiere que las diferencias entre y dentro de cada especies dependieron del hábitat en el cual se encontraban. Dados estos resultados, se recomienda precaución al generalizar los resultados para especies con amplia distribución geográfica basados en áreas pequeñas. Se recomienda no sembrar, ni cortar árboles cerca de los sitios de incubación, y que algunas áreas sean excluídas de las conseciones para actividades forestales y de mineras.

Abstract:
SUMMARYAspects of species life histories may increase their susceptibility to climate change. Owing to their exclusive reliance on environmental sources of heat for incubation, megapodes may be especially vulnerable. We employed a trait-based vulnerability assessment to weigh their exposure to projected climate variables of increasing temperatures, fluctuating rainfall and sea level rise and their biological sensitivity and capacity to adapt. While all 21 species were predicted to experience at least a 2 °C increase in mean annual temperature, 12 to experience a moderate or greater fluctuation in rainfall and 16 to experience rising seas, the most vulnerable megapodes are intrinsically rare and range restricted. Species that employ microbial decomposition for incubation may have an adaptive advantage over those that do not and may be more resilient to climate change. The moderate microclimate necessary for mound incubation, however, may in some areas be threatened by anthropogenic habitat loss exacerbated by warmer and seasonally drier conditions. As with many avian species, little is known about the capacity of megapodes to adapt to a changing climate. We therefore recommend that future research efforts investigate megapode fecundity, gene flow and genetic connectivity at the population level to better determine their adaptive capacity.

Abstract:
Assessment of conservation community perceptions has been an important aspect of wild species research. Harvesting the eggs of Moluccan megapodes has implications for the preservation of bird populations. This study aims to assess the perceptions of local communities living near bird nesting sites regarding the conservation of the endemic Moluccan megapodes (Eulipoa wallacei). The survey was conducted on 200 respondents from the productive age group (aged 15 to 65) using a proportionate stratified random sampling technique with a closed-ended questionnaire. The Likert scale was used to analyze perception data. Research findings indicated that the majority of the community supported the practice of harvesting eggs, even though they were aware that the birds were protected species. Community perceptions of conservation only focused on adult birds and their habitat rather than conserving bird eggs. Therefore, the perceptions of egg conservation must be considered when developing an effective conservation program. It was recommended to design a conservation program to increase local people’s awareness of the importance of Moluccan megapode conservation through sustainable egg harvesting.

Abstract:
Abstract Avifaunas derived from Lapita archaeological sites excavated between 2004 and 2014 from four sites in the Vava'u Group and two on Tongatapu, Kingdom of Tonga are described, revealing birds encountered by the first human arrivals. A total of 741 identifiable bones revealed 24 avian taxa, among which terrestrial birds, especially rails, pigeons and parrots, were the most abundant. At a minimum, eight taxa, or 50% of the original non-passerine land bird diversity in the sample, are globally extinct. These include two megapodes (Megapodius alimentum and a larger unnamed megapode), three pigeons (a large Caloenas sp. indet., Didunculus placopedetes and Ducula shutleri sp. nov.), two rails (Hypotaenidia vavauensis sp. nov. and an unnamed one) and the parrot Eclectus infectus. The rail H. vavauensis was restricted to Vava'u and was flightless, with reduced wings, and larger than Hypotaenidia woodfordi of the Solomons, the largest congener hitherto found in the Pacific. The pigeon Du. shutleri was volant, but was the largest species in its genus and was widespread in the Kingdom. The evolution of Tongan avifaunas is related to varying ages (Pliocene to Pleistocene) of the island groups, where geological youth apparently precluded true giantism in the fauna.

Full text
Abstract:
Megapodes are unusual galliform birds that use passive heat sources to incubate their eggs. Evolutionary relationships of extant megapode taxa have become clearer with the advent of molecular analyses, but the systematics of large, extinct forms ( Progura gallinacea , Progura naracoortensis ) from the late Cenozoic of Australia has been a source of confusion. It was recently suggested that the two species of Progura were synonymous, and that this taxon dwarfed into the extant malleefowl Leipoa ocellata in the Late Pleistocene. Here, we review previously described fossils along with newly discovered material from several localities, and present a substantial taxonomic revision. We show that P. gallinacea and P. naracoortensis are generically distinct, describe two new species of megapode from the Thylacoleo Caves of south-central Australia, and a new genus from Curramulka Quarry in southern Australia. We also show that L. ocellata was contemporaneous with larger species. Our phylogenetic analysis places four extinct taxa in a derived clade with the extant Australo-Papuan brush-turkeys Talegalla fuscirostris , L. ocellata , Alectura lathami and Aepypodius bruijnii . Therefore, diversity of brush-turkeys halved during the Quaternary, matching extinction rates of scrubfowl in the Pacific. Unlike extant brush-turkeys, all the extinct taxa appear to have been burrow-nesters.

Abstract:
Characteristics are presented on eggs of the maleo, Macrocephalon maleo, which are compared with data from other megapodes. Maleo eggs contain an extremely large amount of yolk which, on average, accounts for 61.9% of the egg contents weight, which is much higher than in eggs of the Australian brush-turkey, Alectura lathami (50.1%), and the malleefowl, Leipoa ocellata (52.6%). A higher yolk content leads to an elongation of the egg and a higher relative egg weight. The results suggest that eggs of burrow-nesting megapodes contain more yolk than eggs of mound-building species.

Some megapode populations have already become extinct in parts of Indonesia because of the increasing human population, improved infrastructure and the abandonment of traditions governing the collection of megapode eggs for human consumption. In other areas megapode eggs are being collected unsustainably, while in more remote areas traditions, and megapode populations, are still intact. The authors examine the ways that traditional egg-collecting methods could be incorporated successfully into megapode conservation projects.

Abstract:
Abstract Parental care is regarded as one of the most influential forces acting on the evolution of mating systems. Polynesian Megapodes (Megapodius pritchardii) are burrow nesters and rely on geothermal heat for incubation. Because they provide no parental care, either before or after hatching, they can provide insights into selective forces that have shaped mating systems in the absence of parental care. Our study of their mating system—the first such study of any burrow-nesting megapode—suggests social monogamy. The partners of 10 marked pairs stayed together in the same territory for ≤12 months and were seen with their partner significantly more often than on their own. In 64% of all observations, pair partners foraged <5 m apart, and females fed on food items uncovered by the male. Duets also indicated long-lasting pair bonds. We propose that monogamy in this species is related to the fact that females lay only one large egg at a time (which weighs, on average, 24% of her body weight), in intervals of several days or weeks. Producing eggs year-round, females require a high intake of protein-rich food. They seem to benefit, within the pair bond, from the male-defended feeding territory and from the invertebrates the male uncovers while feeding close by. While being guarded by the male, females can spend more time searching for food and are protected from forced copulations by other males. The monogamous pair bond seems to benefit the male by enhancing his chances of fertilizing his partner's eggs; with an unpredictable laying interval and year-round egg production, males cannot predict when their partner will be fertile and thus benefit from staying with her year-round.

Abstract:
Climate change has been a subject of numerous studies. While findings suggest that most biological taxa will be affected by its manifestations, aspects of a species life history may increase its susceptibility to climate change. Given their reliance on environmental sources of heat to incubate their eggs, I examined the vulnerability to climate change of the avian family Megapodiidae. I also assessed habitat use, susceptibility to sea level rise, and the effect of introduced rats and tourist presence, as added stressors to climate change, on the Micronesian Megapode (Megapodius laperouse senex) in Palau. Based on available literature, I employed a trait-based assessment to investigate the vulnerability of 21 species of megapodes to climate change. All species were predicted to experience at least a 2°C increase in mean annual temperature, 12 may experience a moderate or greater fluctuation in rainfall, and 16 would be exposed to rising seas. While the most vulnerable megapodes are intrinsically rare and range restricted, mound nesting species may be more resilient to climate change than others. I examined breeding and foraging habitat use by the mound nesting megapode in the Rock Islands Southern Lagoon Conservation Area (RISL), where it almost exclusively uses low-lying littoral strand habitat for breeding. Megapodes preferentially selected sites that were 1) relatively close to shore, 2) contained large trees, and 3) exhibited greater canopy heights than the surrounding forest. The subspecies foraged in a non-preferential manner and used all littoral habitat with no apparent influence of dominant plant species composition. Using GIS and the latest spatial data, I modelled the effect of three currently accepted scenarios (0.52 m, 0.98 m, and 1.9 m) of sea level rise on their known breeding habitat. The RISL is comprised of 3,857.5 ha of forested cover of which megapodes used 120.8 ha (3.1%) for breeding, with an additional 25.3 ha potentially available to them. Megapodes may lose at least 32.5% to 43.3% of known breeding habitat and 25.7% to 31.3% of potential habitat to inundation, respectively. Using passive chew-tag and call playback surveys, I examined whether introduced rats and tourist presence may negatively affect megapodes in the RISL. Rat detection probability and site occupancy were significantly higher on tourist visited iv (89% and 99%, respectively) compared to tourist-free islands (52% and 73%). I detected significantly more megapodes at stations on tourist-free islands (93%) than tourist visited (47%), but relative abundance was not significantly different between island types. My findings suggested no significant relationship between rats and megapodes, a negative relationship between tourist presence and megapodes, and augmentation of rat populations by tourist presence. I compared the ecology of, and IUCN listed threats for, Micronesian Megapodes in Palau with those in the Mariana Islands. I proposed both the inclusion of an additional climate change related threat based on my sea level rise modelling, and new ranking of all IUCN threats by subspecies. Lastly, I proposed research and data acquisition priorities necessary to fill current gaps in the knowledge of megapodes in Palau and facilitate its long-term conservation.

Abstract:
Malleefowl are iconic Australian birds that build large mounds to incubate their eggs using external sources of heat. Malleefowl numbers have drastically decreased since European settlement and they are now a nationally threatened species. Their decline is caused by habitat loss and fragmentation; predation by introduced species; inappropriate fire regimes and competition and habitat degradation through overabundant native and introduced herbivores. Climate change is expected to exacerbate these pressures by leading to more frequent and longer periods of high temperatures, reduced precipitation and increased frequency and intensity of wildfires. This thesis aimed to investigate how historic and recent habitat fragmentation and climatic variables influenced Malleefowl on the Eyre Peninsula and how climate change may exacerbate future impacts. The objectives were to assess population trends, investigate landscape genetics, study movement patterns and the influence of habitat variables. These objectives were addressed through a multidisciplinary approach to study discrete Malleefowl populations at study sites located on the Eyre Peninsula in South Australia. To assess population trends and the influence of environmental factors, 24 years of mound-based breeding activity data were modelled. Results showed a widespread and significant decline in Malleefowl breeding activity during the study period, driven by changes in vegetation cover and reduction in soil moisture. High throughput DNA sequencing was used to investigate past dispersal patterns and the effects of recent anthropogenic land cover changes. The results indicate that Malleefowl population structure on the Eyre Peninsula was not homogenous and that habitat fragmentation with subsequent isolation has caused the differentiation of at least two distinct populations. Further, there was preliminary genetic evidence of female dispersal. Solar-powered GPS trackers were used to determine individual movement patterns and the effects of habitat fragmentation and environmental factors. Malleefowl movement was tightly associated with breeding status, with breeding birds staying close to the mound and non-breeding birds disassociating from the mound and moving long distances. Movement was also influenced by patch size and fragmentation, with non-breeding birds in large patches moving further than birds in smaller patches, but Malleefowl were able to persist in small patches and breed successfully for many years. Malleefowl moved less with increasing temperatures. Malleefowl did not use cropping land and they avoided crossing open paddocks. Malleefowl also had high mortality rates with over 66% of tracked individuals dying within a year of trapping, mostly from cat and fox predation. Vegetation surveys were combined with GPS tracking data to investigate whether Malleefowl movement was influenced by vegetation composition or cover. Results indicate that Malleefowl seek out micropatches of tall mallee stands within a mature Eucalyptus matrix – likely as refuges from heat and predators – and that movement is less driven by a preference for plant species, reflecting the fact that Malleefowl have a highly variable and opportunistic diet. In summary, this thesis shows how anthropogenic habitat alteration and changing environmental conditions have reduced breeding activity, restricted movement, dispersal and gene flow of Malleefowl populations on the Eyre Peninsula, with noticeable long-term genetic effects. Further, we can expect climate change to exacerbate all existing pressures and possibly drive Malleefowl closer to extinction. This research provides valuable new information about Malleefowl movement ecology which supports increased efforts to protect even small patches of native vegetation in agricultural matrices and the creation of habitat corridors between patches, as well as the improvements of matrix habitat, to facilitate between-patch movement. This, combined with continued and improved predator-control efforts, may enhance the conditions for future survival of Malleefowl populations, and support biodiversity in general, which is vital when faced with increasing climate change pressures.

Abstract:
The purpose of this project is to establish a correlation between precipitation and background gamma radiation levels at radiation portal monitors (RPM) deployed at various ports worldwide, and to devise a mechanism by which the effects of these precipitation-induced background fluctuations could be mitigated. The task of detecting special nuclear materials (SNM) by passive gamma spectroscopy is very difficult due to the low signal-to-noise ratio observed in an uncontrolled environment. Due to their low activities and the low energies of their characteristic gamma rays, the signals from many types of SNM can easily be obscured by background radiation. While this can be somewhat mitigated by taking regular background radiation measurements, even this cannot resolve the issue if background levels change suddenly and dramatically. Furthermore, any increase in background count rate will increase the statistical uncertainty of the count rate measurement, and thus decrease the minimum quantity of SNM that can be reliably detected. Existing research suggests that the advent of precipitation is the culprit behind many such large and sudden increases in background radiation. The correlation between precipitation and background levels was explored by in-situ testing on a full-scale portal monitor at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and by comparing previously recorded background radiation and weather data from portal monitors located at ports worldwide. The first was utilized to determine the frequency and magnitude at which precipitation introduces background activity, and the second was used to quantify the effects of various quantities and types of precipitation in various parts of the world. Once this analysis was complete, various methods of mitigating these changes in background radiation were developed based on the collected data. Precipitation was found to be the most common culprit for rapid increases in background count rate, and was attributable to 85.6% of all such events. Based on extensive simulation via the Origen-ARP and MCNP software, a response function for the portal monitor was developed, and an algorithm designed to predict the contribution of the precipitation to the background count rate was developed. This algorithm was able to attenuate the contribution of precipitation to the background count rate by an average of 45% with very minimal over-correction. Such an algorithm could be utilized to adjust the alarm levels of the RPM to better allow it to compensate for the rise and fall in background count rate due to precipitation. Additionally, the relative contribution of precipitation which landed at various distances from the portal monitor to the increase in background count rate was measured via simulation. This simulation demonstrated that 37.2% of all background counts were due to the radon daughters which landed within a 2.76 m radius from the center of the portal monitor. This radius encompasses the area between the two portals. Based on this, several designs for shielding were simulated, the most successful of which was a concrete structure that was able to attenuate 71.3% of the background radiation caused by a given precipitation event at a materials cost of approximately $6,000 per RPM. This method is recommended as the primary means of mitigating this issue.

Abstract:
In three generations, peculiarities of changes in the profile of Y-chromosome haplotypes were studied. Genetic demographic questionnaire collecting and genotyping by 18 STR of Y-chro-mosome were performed, haplogroups of Y-chromosome were detected. In generations of megalopolis population, specific peculiarities of the frequency profiles of Y-chromosome hap-logroups were detected, due to migration of population to megapolis. In the youngest genera-tion, in comparison with two previous generations statistically significant accumulation in the gene pool of megalopolis population “southern” by origin haplogroups bringing to megapolis with migrant flows. Obtained results are in good agreement with ethnic contents of migrants to Moscow detected by questionnaire data.
