Organochlorine contaminants in albatross from the South Pacific Ocean
1. Albatross eggs and embryos were collected in field seasons from 1996 to 1998 by Department of Conservation field staff. Species collected were the Northern Royal albatross (Diomedea sanfordi), Northern Buller's mollymawk (Thalassarche (platei) (nova sp.)) and Chatham Islands mollymawk (Thalassarche eremita). 2. Tissues were submitted to ESR for chemical analysis. Chemicals of particular inte...

Toxaphene and other persistent organochlorine (OC) pesticides (chlordane-related compounds [sigmaCHL], DDT-related compounds [sigmaDDT], hexachlorocyclohexanes [sigmaHCH], tris(p-chloro-phenyl)methane, hexachlorobenzene, octachlorostyrene, dieldrin) were determined in fat of Laysan albatross (Diomedea immutabilis) and in fat and eggs of blackfooted albatross (Diomedea nigripes) from the central...
متن کاملFao/birdlife South American Workshop on Implementation of Npoa–seabirds and Conservation of Albatrosses and Petrels
The International Plan of Action for Reducing Incidental Catch of Seabirds in Longline Fisheries (IPOA–Seabirds) was developed by FAO in response to the growing concern. The IPOA–Seabirds requests countries with longline fisheries that interact with seabirds to develop a national plan (NPOA–Seabirds) to reduce the incidental seabird catch in their fisheries. Several countries in the South Ameri...
متن کاملForaging ecology of albatrosses and petrels from South Georgia: two decades of insights from tracking technologies
1. A wide range of instrumentation has been deployed on albatrosses and petrels at Bird Island, South Georgia, in studies dating back to the mid-1980s. Early results indicated the huge distances that albatrosses and large petrels travelled within the breeding season. More recent data show the capacity for sustained ground speeds >100 kmh , taking advantage of the local wind field. Migrants can ...
