Survivorship of meadow voles, Microtus pennsylvanicus, from sewage sludge-treated fields
Journal Article

· Bull. Environ. Contam. Toxicol.; (United States)
A long-term field study was begun in 1977 at Miami University to evaluate the effects of land application of sewage sludge on experimental old-field communities. The effects of sludge application on toxic metal concentrations in meadow vole (Microtus pennsylvanicus) organs during the first two years of the study have been reported. During the first two years of sludge application, no detrimental effects were observed in vole survivorship as a result of sludge treatment.
