TLDR
Results showed that dissolved heavy metals are indeed bioavailable within the aquaculture pond system, and concentrations recorded in this study are comparable to highly contaminated environments, such as those exposed to urban, industrial and mining pollution.

Acid sulfate soils and human health--a Millennium Ecosystem Assessment.

TL;DR: The impact of such soils on human well-being needs to be recognised in order to raise awareness among the public and decision makers, to in turn facilitate proper management and avoid potential human ill-health.

Status of Phytoremediation in World Scenario

TL;DR: The use of plants species for cleaning polluted soils and water named as phytoremediation has gained increasing attention since last decade, as an emerging cheaper technology as mentioned in this paper, which is not new.

Bioremediation of Heavy Metal by Algae: Current and Future Perspective

TL;DR: Phytoremediation is an innovative clean-up technology that mainly depends on the biosorption and bioaccumulation abilities of algae, and the former is dominated in the whole process of bioremediations.

Heavy metals in the environment.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used animal models for comparative studies of lead poisoning pollution by Cadmium and the Itai-Itai disease in Japan methyl mercury poisoning due to environmental contamination, toxicity of inorganic and organic mercury compounds in animals toxicity and residual aspects of alkymercury fungicides in livestock.

Biomonitoring of heavy metal availability in the marine environment

TL;DR: It is not valid to compare absolute accumulated metal concentrations in biomonitors interspecifically, although interspecific comparisions of rank orders do allow cross correlations of relative bioavailabilities of heavy metals to different biomonitor at the same sites.
