Disrupted bone metabolism in contaminant-exposed white storks (Ciconia ciconia) in southwestern Spain
Abstract
In 1998, the Aznalcóllar mine tailings dyke in southwestern Spain broke, flooding the Agrio-Guadiamar river system with acid tailings up to the borders of one of the largest breeding colonies of white storks in the western Palearctic, Dehesa de Abajo.
