Toxicity of white phosphorus to waterfowl: Acute exposure in mallards
D. W. Sparling, M. Gustafson, P. Klein, N. Karouna-Renier
1997, Journal of Wildlife Diseases (33) 187-197
As part of an effort to understand extensive, white phosphorus (P4)-induced waterfowl mortality at Eagle River Flats, Fort Richardson, Alaska, we conducted a number of acute toxicity tests using penned mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) in 1993 and 1994. The 24-hr median lethal dose (LD50) for P4 dissolved in oil was...
Secondary poisoning of kestrels by white phosphorus
Donald W. Sparling, Nicholas E. Federoff
1997, Ecotoxicology (6) 239-247
Since 1982, extensive waterfowl mortality due to white phosphorous (P4) has been observed at Eagle River Flats, a tidal marsh near Anchorage, Alaska. Ducks and swans that ingest P4 pellets become lethargic and may display severe convulsions. Intoxicated waterfowl attract raptors and gulls that feed on dead or dying birds....

Christina A. Neal, Thomas J. Casadevall, Thomas P. Miller, James W. Hendley II, Peter H. Stauffer
1997, Fact Sheet 030-97
The world's busy air traffic corridors pass over hundreds of volcanoes capable of sudden, explosive eruptions. In the United States alone, aircraft carry many thousands of passengers and millions of dollars of cargo over volcanoes each day. Volcanic ash can be a serious hazard to aviation even thousands of miles...

1997, Open-File Report 97-857
Redoubt Volcano is a stratovolcano located within a few hundred kilometers of more than half of the population of Alaska. This volcano has erupted explosively at least six times since historical observations began in 1778. The most recent eruption occurred in 1989-90 and similar eruptions can be expected in the...
