| mobility and bioavailability of trace metals in sulfidic coastal sediments. | high concentrations of hg, cd, pb, cu, and zn were found in the euxinic sediment of the inner archipelago of stockholm. in the sulfide-rich sediment, they are precipitated as metal sulfides with low dissolving capacity and bioavailability. in two experiments, the significance of acid-volatile sulfide (avs) and dissolved sulfides for mobility, bioavailability, and toxicity of metals were studied by oxygenation of intact sediment cores. influence of bioturbating deposit-feeding amphipods, that is, ... | 2001 | 11345449 |
| evaluation of the role of black carbon in attenuating bioaccumulation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from field-contaminated sediments. | the significance of black carbon (bc) for the bioavailability of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (pahs) was examined by using historically contaminated intact sediment cores in laboratory exposure experiments with the deposit-feeding amphipod monoporeia affinis. log values of amphipod biota-sediment accumulation factors (bsafs) were significantly related to log bc, whereas log bsafs were related to log octanol-water partition coefficients only in background sediments containing less bc. in the ... | 2004 | 15559275 |
