About

I'll be collecting water samples on my 94 small study lakes in the Sudbury Ontario region as part of my Sudbury Loon Study with Doug Tozer at Bird Studies Canada and Professor Mark Mallory at Acadia University in Nova Scotia. I started this study on the effects of lake acidification on Common Loon breeding success in 1982 for my Master's thesis at Trent University.
