| organophosphate pesticide method development and presence of chlorpyrifos in the feet of nearctic-neotropical migratory songbirds from canada that over-winter in central america agricultural areas. | recent modeling analysis suggests that numerous birds may be at risk of acute poisoning in insecticide-treated fields. although the majority of avian field studies on pesticides have focused on treated seed, granule, insect or vegetation (oral exposure) ingestion, dermal exposure is an important exposure route when birds come into contact with deposited pesticides on foliage and other surfaces. some nearctic-neotropical migratory songbirds are likely exposed to pesticides on their non-breeding h ... | 2016 | 26421621 |
| effects of sea-level rise and anthropogenic development on priority bird species habitats in coastal georgia, usa. | we modeled changes in area of five habitats, tidal-freshwater forest, salt marsh, maritime shrub-scrub (shrub), maritime broadleaf forest (oak) and maritime narrowleaf (pine) forest, in coastal georgia, usa, to evaluate how simultaneous habitat loss due to predicted changes in sea level rise (slr) and urban development will affect priority bird species of the south atlantic coastal plain by 2100. development rates, based on regional growth plans, were modeled at 1% and 2.5% annual urban growth, ... | 2012 | 21986917 |
