The finding of the researchers that common loons from Adirondacks spend their winter months along the coasts of Cape cod, Long island Sound and New Jersey is crucial to implement an effective management plan for the species. This information would enable conservationists to better assess and address the impacts of oil spills, air pollution, botulism and other problems on common loon populations throughout tgusaheir range.
