Abstract:

This document presents an extensive bibliography of pertinent research on the life requirements of colonial nesting waterbirds in the United States and their relationship to dredged material. An additional bibliography of 181 references pertaining to the vegetation and soils on dredged material islands and environmental impacts of dredged material islands and environmental impacts of dredged material deposition on waterbird habitats is also presented. Selected references from Canada, Europe, and Africa that pertain to related waterbirds or those introduced to the United States are included. This report provides the reader access to little-known sources and gives localized data on waterbird species that are not otherwise readily available. References from years 1844 to 1978 are included.
