- Title
Migration patterns affect biomagnifying contaminant concentrations in fish-eating birds.

- Abstract
The article discusses the impact of migration patterns of migratory birds on biomagnifying contaminant concentrations in fish-eating birds. It mentions that the organic contaminants tend to biomagnify at consistent rates through food webs. It cites the use of multiple external and chemical tracers that can help identify the biomagnifying contaminant contribution through mathematical mixing models
