Survival rate and breeding outputs in a high Arctic seabird exposed to legacy persistent organic pollutants and mercury
Chronic exposure to pollutants may represent a threat for wildlife.We tested whether adult survival rate, breeding probability and breeding success the year of sampling and the following year were affected by blood levels of mercury or persistent organic pollutants in Svalbard black-legged kittiwake...
