Aerial and Ground Survey Techniques, Behavioral Ecology
Julie Parrett has worked on a variety of projects, including waterfowl and loon aerial surveys, ground-based surveys of tundra-nesting birds, migration studies using ornithological radar, and behavioral observations of nesting waterfowl near oilfields. She has also contributed to demographic studies of several species of owls in Alaska (Snowy owl) and the lower 48 (Long-earred owl). In addition to waterfowl and raptor work, Julie has been involved with mammalian studies such as ice-based bowhead whale censuses, aerial caribou surveys, and observations of arctic fox at den sites.
