and a B.S
(Zoology) and M.S (Biology/Zoology) both from the University of Washington,

relationship between the hormone corticosterone and changes in morphology
(body mass and fat levels) as a result of increased energy demands during migration
in White Crowned Sparrows (WCS), Zonotrichia leucophrys gambelii. Specifically examining what changes
occur in corticosterone levels, how much body fat and mass is lost due to the
duration of flight and how much is added during the first 72 hrs of recovery after flight due to the increased energy
demands experienced by White Crowned Sparrows as the migrate. Links |
