Methods for assessing the toxicological significance of metals in aquatic ecosystems : bio-accumulation - toxicity relationships, water concentrations and sediment spiking approaches / U. Borgmann.: En13-5/98-234E-PDF
"Although the published literature abounds with studies showing contamination of aquatic environments by metals, there are very few data which actually demonstrate the biological impact of this contamination. Biological impacts such as alteration of in situ communities and demonstration of toxicity in environmental samples often occur at sites with elevated metal concentrations, but this does not prove that metals are actually responsible for these effects"--Abstract.
