The Adirondack Center for Loon Conservation evolved from research initiated in 1998 by Biodiversity Research Institute (BRI) to assess the impact of environmental mercury pollution on aquatic ecosystems throughout North America using the Common Loon as an indicator species. In the spring of 2017 the Adirondack Center for Loon Conservation (also known as the Adirondack Loon Center) became an independent nonprofit organization.
The Adirondack Center for Loon Conservation conducts loon research, education, and conservation programs that were previously conducted by BRI in New York’s Adirondack Park. The organization operates out of the Adirondack Loon Center, which is located in Saranac Lake, NY.
