Mercury Bioavailability in Fluvial Sediments Estimated Using <em>Chironomus riparius</em> and Diffusive Gradients in Thin-Films (DGT)
Mercury bioavailability was assessed by exposing the dipteran <i>Chironomus riparius</i> for the whole life cycle to legacy-contaminated fluvial sediments (0.038–0.285 mg Hg kg<sup>−1</sup> d.w.) and analyzing tissue concentrations in larvae at different exposure times (7, 11...
