Optimization of the Biomonitoring Technique with the Aquatic Moss <i>Fontinalis antipyretica</i> Hedw.: Selection of Shoot Segment Length for Determining Trace Element Concentrations

Optimization of the Biomonitoring Technique with the Aquatic Moss <i>Fontinalis antipyretica</i> Hedw.: Selection of Shoot Segment Length for Determining Trace Element Concentrations

Bryophytes, including <i>Fontinalis antipyretica</i> Hedw., are widely used for biomonitoring aquatic environments. However, some methodological aspects, such as the fraction of shoot analysed, have not yet been standardized. The main objective of this study was to establish the length o...
