This project investigates the effects of mercury and selenium on the reproductive success and population dynamics of the little auk, a common Arctic bird. It aims to understand the relationship between these pollutants and environmental factors over 15 years of monitoring in Greenland.
Mercury (Hg) concentrations in the oceans have tripled in the last centuries, even in remote areas such as the Arctic.
Hg is bioaccumulated in food webs and can produce toxic effects affecting breeding and survival probabilities in wildlife.
Selenium (Se) has been proved to have a protective effect against Hg toxicity, but no long-term studies have been carried out to evaluate reproductive output and population dynamics in relation to Se or the interaction Se-Hg.
Using as a population model the…
