Journal ArticleDOI
Ecotoxicology of metals in aquatic sediments: binding and release, bioavailability, risk assessment, and remediation
TL;DR: In this paper, the acid-volatile sulfide (AVS) model is used to model the metal binding phases in the aerobic layer of sediments, including iron and manganese oxyhydroxides (FeOOH and MnOOH) and particulate organic carbon (POC).
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of traditional and novel toxicity test methods in assessing stormwater and sediment contamination.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a bioassay exposure design of 1 to 9 days using freshwater and marine/estuarine species known to be sensitive to a wide range of toxicants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metal Bioavailability and Toxicity in Sediments
TL;DR: A number of assessment methods have been proposed, such as chemical extractions of available fractions, development of theoretical and empirical single chemical guidelines, laboratory toxicity testing, field testing of single species, evaluations of populations and communities, and field exposures collecting chemical “available” fractions as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measuring bioaccumulation of contaminants from field-collected sediment in freshwater organisms: A critical review of laboratory methods
TL;DR: Bioaccumulation methods using freshwater invertebrates and fish exposed to field-contaminated sediment were reviewed to identify important similarities and differences in method protocols, test conditions that need to be controlled, and data gaps.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toxicity of silver sulfide-spiked sediments to the freshwater amphipod (Hyalella azteca)
TL;DR: Natural freshwater sediments were spiked in the laboratory with silver sulfide (Ag2S), and semistatic toxicity tests were conducted, indicating that this form of silver was not bioavailable under these conditions.
