HI Tweets,

I was wondering if anyone has or could direct me to any information
about nutrient input (and loading) into lakes, especially phosphorous, from
waterbird (ie. ducks, geese, herons, cormorants, gulls) feces. I am
interested in finding references or just raw numbers from unpublished
results of this effect and also estimates of amounts of nutrients excreted
by individual species. In addition, nutrient uptake by the same group of
birds would br helpful.

thanks in advance,

Eric Gross
