This study links irregular iris pigmentation in Northern Gannets to past exposure to HPAIV H5N1, showing it can serve as a non-invasive marker for disease surveillance.

This paper presents a framework to assess cumulative effects of offshore wind energy and other pressures on aerofauna to guide site selection and minimize environmental impacts.

This study evaluates how well iNaturalist data captures waterbird mortality patterns during a mass mortality event caused by avian influenza, finding it effective for species and location but lacking in magnitude and taxonomic accuracy.

The paper documents reduced seabird and sea duck mortalities in eastern Canada during the 2023 breeding season compared to 2022 following HPAI introduction, with more diverse species affected in 2023.

The paper estimates 40,966 wild bird mortalities in eastern Canada due to H5N1 avian influenza in 2022, highlighting potential population-level impacts on Northern Gannets and American Common Eiders.

This paper reviews mitigation strategies for offshore wind energy impacts on birds and bats, finding most approaches lack evidence of effectiveness and emphasizing the need for rigorous testing and avoidance strategies.

This study tracks the spread of HPAIV H5N1 in Canadian wild birds after its 2021/2022 incursion, finding widespread infection across species and regions.
