Foraging activity of migrating Brant at Stubbs Island in April 1989 following the Nestucca oil spill / Michael S. Rodway.: CW69-5/77E-PDF

"Clayoquot Spit on the north end of Stubbs Island is a traditional staging and feeding area for Brant migrating north along the west coast of Vancouver Island. Oil from the Nestucca spill, which occurred off Washington on 23 December 1988, impacted Stubbs Island early in January 1989. To assess potential perturbation to migrating Brant in the spring of 1989, a study of Brant foraging behavior was conducted throughout the period they were present on the island"--Abstract.
