General Range and Washington Distribution

چکیده
The common murre is a gregarious, colonially nesting, and circumpolar seabird with a boreal, low Arctic, and northern temperate distribution (American Ornithologists’ Union 1983, Nettleship and Evans 1985, Gaston and Jones 1998, Ainley et al. 2002). Based mostly on morphological differences, there have been up to eight subspecies or races described for the common murre (Storer 1952, Tuck 1961, Bédard 1985, Gaston and Jones 1998, Ainley et al. 2002), with three to six occurring in the Atlantic Ocean and two in the Pacific Ocean (Uria aalge inornata, U. a. californica).

Paleozoological (archaeological and paleontological) data indicate pronghorn were present there during most of the last 10,000 years, and available samples imply the boundaries of pronghorn distribution coincided with the modern distribution of shr...
متن کاملOn the Blocks of Interpoint Distances
We study the blocks of interpoint distances, their distributions, correlations, independence and the homogeneity of their total variances. We discuss the exact and asymptotic distribution of the interpoint distances and their average under three models and provide connections between the correlation of interpoint distances with their vector correlation and test of sphericity. We discuss testing...
