• Plasma Glutathione and Carotenoid Coloration as Potential Biomarkers of Environmental Stress in Great Tits (2005, background): “…and ecologically well-known tits (Parus spp.), may serve as valuable monitors of environmental stressors, such as organochlorines (Dauwe et al., 2003), heavy metals (Llacuna et al., 1995; Eens et al., 1999; Dauwe et al., 2000), and urban air pollution (Eeva and Lehikoinen, 1995; Eeva et al., 2000).”
• Air pollution impacts on avian species via inhalation exposure and associated outcomes (2017, background): “Later work by this group also found that pied flycatchers, unlike great tits, exhibit stress responses suggestive of a direct toxic effect in the vicinity of point sources of industrial air pollution (Eeva et al 2000).”
• Heterophil/lymphocyte ratios and heat-shock protein levels are related to growth in nestling birds (2002, background): “The level of HSP70, which has been used in other studies of stress in wild birds (Merino et al., 1999; Eeva et al., 2000), did not correlate with the other two.”
