Differences in Trophic Level, Contaminant Load, and DNA Damage in an Urban and a Remote Herring Gull ( Larus argentatus) Breeding Colony in Coastal Norway

Abstract Herring gulls ( Larus argentatus ) are opportunistic feeders, resulting in contaminant exposure depending on area and habitat. We compared contaminant concentrations and dietary markers between two herring gull breeding colonies with different distances to extensive human activity and presu...
