GLKN Bald Eagle Bioaccumulative Contaminants Monitoring: Certified Data

Published by National Park Service | Department of the Interior | Metadata Last Checked: January 25, 2026 | Last Modified: 2018-09-27T00:00:00Z
The files contains certified data extracted from the GLKN Bald Eagle Bioaccumulative Contaminants Monitoring database, which includes data for bald eagle morphology and a variety of contaminants from 2006-2015. This data is for the three main study areas which are around three parks (APIS, MISS, and SACN), as well as two study areas that are adjacent (MISS Pools 3+4 and WI Lake Superior Shoreline). The primary focus of the program was on bald eagle nestlings, but some data does exist for sub-adults and adults. The GLKN Bald Eagle Bioaccumulative Contaminants Monitoring Database is designed to hold field and lab data and to disseminate certified data in a variety of ways.
