DDT is a chlorinated hydrocarbon. It was used as a pesticide until it was discovered it was causing damage to the ecosystem.
The damage caused by DDT was high due to biological amplification. This occurs when levels of synthetic chemicals increase and concentrate into the flesh of organisms in higher trophic levels. The DDT began in plankton, but became stronger in concentration as the food web reached the brown pelican.
The brown pelicans began to decline in number because the DDT softened the shells of the eggs. The eggs would crack before a chick would hatch. Then the adults would abandon the nest. The population declined rapidly.
