Cu, Pb, and Zn content in sediments and benthic organisms from San Jorge Bay (northern Chile): Accumulation and biotransference in subtidal coastal systems
The concentration of Cu, Pb, and Zn was measured in order to evaluate their sediment enrichment and probable biomagnification trends in benthic trophic chains of the coastal zone of San Jorge Bay (northern Chile). The mean concentrations of Cu, Zn, and Pb were 103.6, 72.6, and 38.6 mg kg–1, respect...
