Abstract: | Total body burdens of Zn, Pb, Al and Cu were measured in Swedish marine nemerteans sampled from an area close to a major source of pollution. Accumulation patterns varied both seasonally and spatially. The results suggest that nemerteans may be useful bioindicator species in environmental monitoring programmes. |
