The Eco‐Exposome concept: Supporting an integrated assessment of mixtures of environmental chemicals
Organisms are exposed to ever‐changing complex mixtures of chemicals over the course of
their lifetime. The need to more comprehensively describe this exposure and relate it to …

Spatial ecotoxicology: What we know about the relationship between avian movements and contaminant levels
Birds are widely used as indicators of environmental contamination because they integrate
signals across space and time. However, this advantage also means that locating the source …

Sex-specific foraging behaviour in a long-lived seabird
T Militão, N Kürten, S Bouwhuis - Marine Biology, 2023 - Springer
Sex-specific foraging behaviour may lead to differences between the sexes in both resource
acquisition and exposure to threats and thereby contribute to sex-specific reproductive roles …

Blood mercury concentrations in four sympatric gull species from South Western France: Insights from stable isotopes and biologging
Mercury (Hg) is a toxic trace element widely distributed in the environment, which
particularly accumulates in top predators, including seabirds. Among seabirds, large gulls …

Mercury contamination level is repeatable and predicted by wintering area in a long-distance migratory seabird
The environmental presence of mercury has dramatically increased over the past century,
leading to increased uptake, especially by top predators such as seabirds. Understanding …

Mercury bioaccumulation in three colonial seabird species in the Gulf of Maine
The methylated form of mercury, MeHg, is a neurotoxin that bioaccumulates and
biomagnifies through aquatic food webs, reaching high concentrations in top trophic …
