The elusive nature of many marsh-breeding birds presents a challenge for effective population monitoring. The Great Lakes Marsh Monitoring Program (GLMMP), delivered by Birds Canada, addressed these challenges by concentrating survey efforts in marsh

Contaminant levels and trends have been monitored in the eggs of seabirds from the Canadian Arctic since 1975. Nearly 50 years of monitoring have provided key information regarding the temporal and spatial variation of various contaminant classes in

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) impaired pre-migratory fueling in 49 orally dosed Sanderling (Calidris alba). In the present study, 8 genes related to fat deposition and PAH exposure were measured in liver subsamples from these same shorebird

Cadmium (Cd) is a trace element of toxicological concern that has been monitored in marine birds inhabiting the Canadian Arctic since 1975. Despite nearly 50 years of monitoring, research to date has largely evaluated single species, locations, or ti

Productivity of Gavia immer (Common Loon) has declined in Ontario and across southern Canada. Variations in the timing of lake ice-off have the potential to negatively influence productivity of Common Loons, but there is conflicting evidence as to ho

Although there is a clear link between early arrival on the breeding grounds and fitness in migratory birds, how winter and staging site use influence the timing of migration events prior to arrival at breeding areas is not well established. Therefor

Differences in avian sensitivity to dioxin-like compounds (DLCs) are directly attributable to the identities of amino acids at two sites within the ligand binding domain (LBD) of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor 1 (AHR1). Recent work suggests that by in

Common loons (Gavia immer) are top predators that depend on lake food webs to successfully fledge chicks. Common loon reproductive success is consequently recognized as an important indicator of aquatic ecosystem health. Existing evidence points to l

Efficient fuelling is essential for migratory birds because fuel loads and fuelling rates affect individual fitness and survival during migration. Many migrant shorebirds are exposed to oil pollution and its toxic constituents, polycyclic aromatic hy

Metal mining and smelting in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada, began in the 1880s and peaked in the 1950s and 1960s. By the mid-1970s, thousands of lakes had been acidified by sulfur dioxide (SO2) emitted from Sudbury metal smelters. Common loons (Gavia imme
