Kelly Boadway
Kelly successfully defended her M.Sc. in March 2012, where she examined the breeding ecology of Arctic Terns (Sterna paradisaea) breeding at Nasaruvaalik Island, Nunavut, in the Canadian High Arctic, and compared that to what we know on this species from Machias Seal Island, New Brunswick (Bay of Fundy) and elsewhere. She was based at University of New Brunswick (Fredericton) and was co-supervised by Tony Diamond and Mark Mallory.

Nora Spencer
Nora completed her M.Sc. at Acadia University, investigating the annual movements and marine habitat use by Ivory Gulls (Pagophila eburnea) breeding in Nunavut, Canada. This project used data from gulls tracked using satellite telemetry, as well as data from at-sea surveys, and served to define critical habitat in the winter for this species. Grant Gilchrist, Karel Allard and Jason Duffe (all with Environment Canada) were key collaborators in this project.

Sam Andrews
Sam came to the lab from Dalhousie University, and is a fish guy through-and-through, formerly working as a guide in northcentral Canada. He has already managed to find some sweet fishing sites in the area, but has yet to show those to Mark ... (well, actually, he hooked a lovely striped bass with Mark). Sam worked on multispecies fish passage across man made barriers to identify specific obstacles to movement and migration. He was co-supervised with Mike Stokesbury here at Acadia.

Mark Maftei
Mark completed his MSc studying the breeding behaviour and migration of Ross's Gull (Rhodostethia rosea), the rarest breeding marine bird in North America, as it relates to Arctic polynyas. His work used geolocators and satellite transmitters to track the gulls, and work took him to the High Arctic and to Barrow, Alaska. He was based at Memorial University of Newfoundland, and was co-supervised by Ted Miller.

Shanti Davis
Shanti completed her M.Sc. studying the beautiful Sabine's Gull (Xema sabini). She used geolocators to track the species' annual movements, key marine habitat sites and breeding phenology in High Arctic Canada. Shanti was based at Memorial University of Newfoundland and was co-supervised with Ian Jones.

Danielle Fife
Danielle undertook an M.Sc. that involved field work at Bon Portage Island, trips to Baccalieu Island off of Newfoundland, and then detailed analyses of mulityear datasets on capture - mark - recapture data for a variety of birds in the Arctic and Maritimes, using Program MARK. She showed effects of Pacific climate patterns on survival in Sabine's Gulls, and low survival of Leach's storm-Petrels in Nova Scotia. Danielle was co-supervised with Dave Shutler, and Greg Robertson at Environment Canada in Newfoundland was a key collaborator.
