Relationships Between Blood Mercury Concentrations and Oxidative Stress in Phalacrocorax auritus

open access: yes, 2013
Mercury (Hg) is a widespread contaminant that has been shown to induce adverse health effects in a wide range of organisms. We explored the relationship between total blood Hg concentrations ([Hg]) and oxidative stress induction in double-crested cormorants (Phalacrocorax auritus). Cormorant blood was sampled at five sites across the Great Lakes basin,

Pathological effects of Cryptocotyle lingua in double-crested cormorants (Phalacrocorax auritus) treated with dexamethasone

open access: yes, 2001
One observation reported in dead common loons, the large numbers of Cryptocotyle lingua found in weak birds, suggests that an underlying disease problem may cause impairment of the immune system of the birds that leads to an increased degree of ...

Growth rates of Thuja occidentalis in an ecosystem altered by the double-crested cormorant, Phalacrocorax auritus.

open access: yes, 2005
Double-crested cormorants, Phalacrocorax auritus, have been shown to have drastic effects on the vegetation in their nesting and roosting sites. In this study I examined how large depositions of cormorant guano affected the growth rates of Northern white-

Minimizing Use of Aquaculture Ponds by Double-Crested Cormorants Phalacrocorax Auritus and Other Fish-Eating Birds

open access: yes, 2003
Methods used to minimize abundance of double-crested cormorant (Phalacrocorax auritus), great blue herons (Ardea herodias), and great egrets (Arded alba) at aquaculture facilities have limited success because of the birds\u27 ability to habituate to the ...

Identification of 24 polymorphic microsatellite markers for the double-crested cormorant (\u3ci\u3ePhalacrocorax auritus\u3c/i\u3e)

open access: yes, 2009
Twenty-four polymorphic microsatellite markers were developed for the double-crested cormorant (Phalacrocorax auritus). The number of alleles ranged from two to 13 and observed heterozygosities ranged from 0.032 to 0.871.
