14.24 Use of Sedimentary-Metal Indicators in Assessment of Estuarine System Health
TL;DR: In this article, total-sediment metal concentrations are used to assess increasing risk to sediment quality, i.e., the ability to support a healthy benthos, and sediment should be included in a batch of indicators in estuarine evaluation where key indicators are assessed in a weight of evidence matrix.

Selenium Hazards to Fish, Wildlife, and Invertebrates: A Synoptic Review
TL;DR: A review of the environmental and toxicological aspects of selenium in the environment is presented in this paper, including its chemistry, background residues in biological and other materials, and toxic, sub-lethal, and latent effects (including the effects of Se deficiency).
Journal ArticleDOI
Current approaches to developing sediment quality criteria
TL;DR: It is concluded that, for chemical-by-chemical criteria, the equilibrium partitioning method shows promise; for criteria that are also applicable to chemical mixtures, the apparent effects threshold/sediment quality triad approaches appear to be most appropriate.
