Book ChapterDOI
Heavy Metals, Major Metals, Trace Elements
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the problem of water contamination and the risks to human health as well as the economical damages it produces, and highlight the importance of human health and the need to pay attention to water contamination.
Journal ArticleDOI
The use of Micropogonias furnieri and Mugil liza as bioindicators of heavy metals pollution in La Plata river estuary, Argentina
TL;DR: The validity of using these two species as bioindicators of heavy metal pollution in the assessed ecosystem was discussed and metal levels found in edible muscle tissue were lower than the international standards of reference for organisms directed to human consumption.
Journal ArticleDOI
Presence, distribution, and origins of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in sediments from Bahía Blanca estuary, Argentina.
Andres Hugo Arias,Alfonso Vázquez-Botello,Norma Tombesi,Guadalupe Ponce-Vélez,Hugo Freije,Jorge Eduardo Marcovecchio +5 more
TL;DR: The diagenetic PAH contribution was found to be negligible at all sampled locations; however, the calculation of molecular ratios determined an overimposition of pyrolitic PAHs over the petrogenic input.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in water, mussels (Brachidontes sp., Tagelus sp.) and fish (Odontesthes sp.) from Bahia Blanca Estuary, Argentina
Andres Hugo Arias,Andres Hugo Arias,Carla Vanesa Spetter,Carla Vanesa Spetter,Rubén Hugo Freije,Jorge Eduardo Marcovecchio +5 more
TL;DR: Ariadas, Andres Hugo as mentioned in this paper, and Salazar, Isabelle, et al. as mentioned in this paper presented a model for oceanographic research at the Universidad Nacional del Sur of Argentina.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tissue distribution of heavy metals in small cetaceans from the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean
Jorge Eduardo Marcovecchio,Víctor J. Moreno,Ricardo Bastida,Marcela Silvia Gerpe,Diego Rodríguez +4 more
TL;DR: Tissue distribution of heavy metals (total mercury, cadmium, zinc and copper) were studied in specimens of Bottlenose Dolphin (Tursiops gephyreus), Franciscana Dolphin (Pontoporia blainvillei) and Pigmy Sperm Whale (Kogia breviceps) stranded in SW Atlantic beaches in Argentina as discussed by the authors.
