4.1 Tissue Guidelines

 

Figure 4.23. Lead accumulation or depuration in parts per million dry weight (ppm) in three transplanted bivalve species for twelve sampling periods from 1993-1998. Initial (T-0) concentrations are subtracted from tissue concentrations after retrieval to give concentrations accumulated or depurated (negative value) during deployment in the Estuary. Bars indicate the range of values of all stations where species were deployed. Note different y-axis scales. means no analyzed data available.
