Manatee use of two power plant effluents on the St. Johns River in Jacksonville, Florida.
Site-Specific Reduction of Manatee Boat/Barge Mortality Research Report (Florida Cooperative Fish & Wildlife Research Unit, Univ. of Florida, Gainesville) No. 1: iii + 63. 5 tabs. 6 figs. Oct. 1983.
–Documents manatee use of the effluents in relation to air and water temperatures, and describes local and long-distance manatee movements and site fidelity as shown by recognition of individuals by scars. Concludes that the Jacksonville plants are used only by small numbers of transient manatees, mainly at the beginning and end of winter, but that these plants may nonetheless be important to the manatee population on a regional scale. Makes recommendations for research and management actions at the Jacksonville plants. Includes an appendix showing the scar patterns of 36 individually identified manatees.
