Journal ArticleDOI

Biodiversity of rocky intertidal benthic communities associated with copper mine tailing discharges in northern Chile.

Matías H. Medina, +5 more
- 01 Apr 2005 - 
TL;DR: A 17-month long monitoring study of species richness and biodiversity at five intertidal sites around the point of the tailing discharge of copper mine tailings in northern Chile suggests a possible recovery of the system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heavy metal concentration in mangrove surface sediments from the north-west coast of South America.

Juan Carlos Fernandez-Cadena, +3 more
- 15 May 2014 - 
TL;DR: Metal concentrations were evaluated in surface sediment samples of the mangrove in Guayaquil, Ecuador, showing that B, Cd, Cu, Pb, Se, V, and Zn levels exceeded those declared in international environmental quality standards.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distribution of dissolved species and suspended particulate copper in an intertidal ecosystem affected by copper mine tailings in Northern Chile

Santiago Andrade, +2 more
- 05 Oct 2006 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used anodic stripping voltammetry with a thin mercury film coated with Nafion, which previous workers have shown can mitigate ambiguity in the data arising from inadvertent reduction of organic complexes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acute toxicities of four metals on the early life stages of the crab Chasmagnathus granulata from Bahía Blanca estuary, Argentina.

Laura Ferrer, +3 more
- 01 Oct 2006 - 
TL;DR: First zoeae were more sensitive than young crabs to acute exposure to all metals analyzed and mixed toxicity tests carried out on first-stage larvae showed different kinds of interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Abundance and diversity of copper resistance genes cusA and copA in microbial communities in relation to the impact of copper on Chilean marine sediments.

Ludovic Besaury, +6 more
- 15 Feb 2013 - 
TL;DR: The molecular phylogeny of the two copper-resistance genes was studied and reveals an impact of copper on the genetic composition of copA and cusA genes.
