DOI: 10.1007/s00244-019-00692-z
Abstract: Effects of moderate-to-severe sediment contamination may be readily discernable in both sediment toxicity bioassays and benthic community assessments. However, the impact may be less obvious under conditions of relatively mild contamination and significant variation of… read more here.
