Trace metal bioavailability: Modeling chemical and biological interactions of sediment-bound zinc Trace metal bioavailability: Modeling chemical and biological interactions of sediment-bound zinc

Extractable concentrations of sediment-bound Zn, as modified by the physicochemical form of the metal in the sediments, controlled Zn concentrations in the deposit-feeding bivalvesScrobicularia plana (collected from 40 stations in 17 estuaries in southwest England) andMacoma balthica (from 28 stations in San Francisco Bay). Over a wide range of concentrations, a significant correlation...
