摘要:

在1989/1990年度南极夏季,对中山站附近麦氏贼鸥雏鸟的生长进行了观察和研究。本区麦氏贼鸥育雏期大约在每年12月中旬至翌年2月下旬,雏鸟的成活率较低,本年度为38.9%,从出雏到育成(首飞日),育期平均53.2天(范围52-55天)。雏鸟平均体重日增长率,第一雏鸟为27.42g/d,第二雏鸟为16.56g/d。雏鸟生长的逻辑斯蒂克曲线数学方程式为:W=1255.41+22.6034e-0.1518t(第一雏鸟)生长曲线渐近线为1255.4g,拐点为20.5d,第一雏鸟体重的最大日增率x=43.94±8.24(g)。影响本区麦氏贼鸥雏鸟生长和成活率的主要外部因子是天气(如暴风雪)同类自残以及食物等

Abstract:

The growth of chicks of South Polar skua Catharacta maccormicki near the Zhongshan Station was observed in 1989/1990 austral summer. The breeding period was going through from mid-December to mid-February next year.The survival rate of chicks was very lower and it was 38.9% in this study season.For about 53.2 days (range 52-55 days) breeding ,the chicks grew up and were able to fly,the average daily growth rate was 27.42g/d and 16.56g/d with first and second chicks respectively.The logistic curve was fitted to the weight data for typical growth.The equation is: W=1255.41+22.6034e -0.1518t The important factors influencing chick's growth and mortality were discussed in this paper.They are food,unfavourable weather and predation by adult skuas.
