Interactive effects of pollutants and climate on seabirds in Arctic Coastal ecosystems (ClimACTox)

Miljøgifter kan være skadelig for ville dyr. Skaden avhenger av nivåer, men kan forverres hvis dyr har det vanskelig fra før, for eksempel vær og klimafenomener som i perioder fører til økt energiforbruk eller reduserte matressurser. I tillegg er ikke miljøgifter likt fordelt i verden. Enkelte om...

Mussel farms constitute an artificial habitat with easily accessible food for several duck species, and large aggregations of birds may, in only a few days, completely empty a mussel farm. A large selection of auditi...
