Nationwide residues of organochlorine compounds in wings of adult mallards and black ducks, 1976-77 Nationwide residues of organochlorine compounds in wings of adult mallards and black ducks, 1976-77
Organochlorine residues in wings of adult mallards and black ducks were monitored nationwide during the 1976-77 hunting season. DDE was found in all samples. Levels were unchanged since the 1972-73 collections in all migratory routes except the Pacific Flyway, in which residue levels declined significantly. Dieldrin levels had not changed in any flyway and residues remained low. PCB...

Bird communities associated with succession and management of lowland conifer forests Bird communities associated with succession and management of lowland conifer forests
Data from published bird censuses were used to determine changes in avian communities in relation to plant succession, fire, type conversion, and timber management practices in lowland conifer forests in the northeastern United States. With modifications in current logging practices, habitat for the bird species that nest in undisturbed stands can be provided. Management guidelines are

Parathion causes secondary poisoning in a laughing gull breeding colony Parathion causes secondary poisoning in a laughing gull breeding colony
Use of organophosphate insecticides as replacements for the more persistent organochlorine compounds has increased dramatically in recent years. Organophosphates are desirable for field application because they break down rapidly in the environment and do not persist in animal tissues (Stickel 1974). Nevertheless, certain organophosphates are extremely toxic to wildlife for short periods...
