Allometric relationships of 210Po and 210Pb in mussels and their application to environmental monitoring

Mussels from the Portuguese coast collected during several seasons of the year have shown 210Po and 210Pb body burdens (Bqmussel−1) that increased with mussels’ body size but displayed significant decrease in radionuclide concentrations (Bqkg−1). For example, the increase of mussel size from 2.5cm t...
