When looking across the three years of our study, we have no evidence to say that terrestrial (in this case non-aquatic) birds are exposed to enough contaminants to have glutathione S-transferase, a detoxifying enzyme, increase in their blood. We also didn't find any evidence that barium was making its way into terrestrial food webs.
The report is in and now to turn it into a paper - hopefully I can get negative results published. PA DCNR should post the report in a few weeks. Negative results are boring but data is data.
Now on to a food web paper, a book chapter, and a Amazonian fragmentation paper.
