Max Carnes-Mason, Biology, authored the article "Sublethal Effects of Crude Oil Exposure Alter Population‐Level Responses in an Individual Based Model of a Passerine Bird" in the "Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology," published on Aug. 28 by Wiley. The article explores the seldom studied sublethal impacts of crude oil exposure in birds using dynamic energy budget modeling techniques. Dynamic relationships between exposure timing, duration, and frequency emerged that may help prioritize restoration and post-spill cleanup efforts.
