| intra- and inter-specific variability in total and methylmercury bioaccumulation by eight marine fish species from the azores. | we relate fish biological and ecological characteristics to total and organic mercury concentrations to determine whether accumulation is influenced by trophic level, hg concentration in the diet, and vertical distribution. levels of total mercury and methylmercury were determined in the muscle tissue of eight species of fish: pagellus acarne, trachurus picturatus, phycis phycis, p. blennoides, polyprion americanus, conger conger, lepidopus caudatus and mora moro, caught in the azores. all such ... | 2007 | 17727898 |
