A mortality event at the Christiansø colony in the Baltic proper killed 115 common eiders (Somateria mollissima) in mid-May 2016. To complement previous studies of incubating females, 39 males were necropsied and from a subsample of these a biochemical and haematological profile was obtained. The birds were emaciated and cachexic having a 50% reduction in body mass.

- Thomas Binger Jessen's research primarily focuses on the health and pathology of wildlife, specifically examining the impact of environmental factors and disease outbreaks in bird populations.
- His notable study on common eiders (Somateria mollissima) during a mortality event revealed significant physiological distress in the affected males, marked by emaciation and a 50% reduction in body mass, contributing to understanding avian health crises.
- The findings highlight the need for continued monitoring of wildlife health and the potential influence of ecological changes on avian populations, stressing the importance of multidisciplinary approaches in environmental research.
