Current impact of DDE on black-crowned night-herons in the intermountain west Current impact of DDE on black-crowned night-herons in the intermountain west
Organochlorine contamination was studied in eight black-crowned night-heron (Nycticorax nycticorax) populations nesting in Washington, Oregon, and Nevada in 1978-80. DDE was detected in 220 eggs sampled; eggshell thickness was negatively correlated with residues of DDE and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB's).

For both 1 and 4 years post-spray, vegetation development was greater in the third height interval (> 3.0 m) on untreated sites. All measures of vegetative diversity on...
