This project investigates the impact of contaminants on the energy expenditure of seabirds, particularly focusing on the European shag. It aims to understand how pollutants and disease interact to affect wildlife fitness.
The pace of change in the World oceans is ever quickening.
For instance, increasing quantities of contaminants are found in marine food webs, exposing top predators to high doses of them through food ingestion.
Contaminants decrease fitness in vertebrates, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood, which limits the ability to predict potential long-term effects on their populations.
Contaminant accumulation is thought to impose direct and indirect costs to vertebrates, through increase…
