1/4 Hi all! Welcome to my #WSTC6 #ContSesh2 thread!

The Gulf of Maine 🌊 (GoM) is grappling w/ huge changes due to ⬆️ human influences 🌡️.

We use Great Shearwaters (GRSH) as sentinels of the GoM to answer ?s abt pollutant occurrence & trends & how they may be impacting GRSH 2/4 #WSTC6 #ContSesh2 We necropsied 377 bycatch and stranded GRSH to collect samples and dem. info. Most birds were collected after foraging in GoM for several mths, but also obtained juvs on their way North, post-breeding adults. Sample subsets analyzed for range of pollutants.
