Each book has two main goals
1. Determine baseline concentrations of metals and metalloids in
tissues of representative field populations of estuarine coastal,
and open ocean organisms (Book 1: algae and macrophytes, protists,
sponges, coelenterates, molluscs, crustaceans, insects,
chaetognaths, annelids, echinoderms, and tunicates) (Book 2:
elasmobranchs, fishes, reptiles, birds, mammals) and their
significance to organism health and to the health of their
consumers.
2. Synthesize existing information on biological, chemical, and
physical factors known to modify uptake, retention, and
translocation of each element under field and laboratory
conditions. Recognition of the importance of these modifiers and
their accompanying interactions is essential to the understanding
of metals kinetics in marine systems and to the interpretation of
baseline residue data.
