Description
Each book has two main goals
1. Determine baseline concentrations of metals and metalloids in tissues of representative field populations
of estuarine coastal, and open ocean organisms (Book 1:algae and macrophytes, protists, sponges, coelenterates, molluscs, crustaceans,
insects, chaetognaths, annelids, echinoderms, and tunicates) (Book 2: elasmobranchs, fishes, reptiles, birds, mammals) and their significance
to organism health and to the health of their consumers.
2. Synthesize existing information on biological, chemical, and physical
factors known to modify uptake, retention, and translocation of each element under field and laboratory conditions. Recognition of the
importance of these modifiers and their accompanying interactions is essential to the understanding of metals kinetics in marine systems
and to the interpretation of baseline residue data.
