Influence of a chlor-alkali superfund site on mercury bioaccumulation in periphyton and low-trophic level fauna

In Berlin, New Hampshire, USA, the Androscoggin River flows adjacent to a former chlor‐alkali facility that is a US Environmental Protection Agency Superfund site and source of mercury (Hg) to the river. The present study was conducted to determine the fate and bioaccumulation of methylmercury (MeHg...
