High rates of mercury biomagnification in fish from Amazonian floodplain-lake food webs

High rates of mercury biomagnification in fish from Amazonian floodplain-lake food webs

Despite a global phase out of some point sources, mercury (Hg) remains elevated in aquatic food webs, posing health risks for fish-eating consumers. Many tropical regions have fast growing organisms, potentially short food chains, and few industrial point sources, suggesting low Hg baselines and low...
