Seagrasses appear relevant bioindicators of metallic contamination in coastal waters. Posidonia oceanica leaves were collected at six locations along the north and east coast of the Adriatic Sea selected on the basis of the presence of different types and levels of human-induced pressures. Concentration of seven trace-metals (Ag, As, Cd, Cu, Hg, Ni...

... Previous results obtained on As in mussels from various districts in the Adriatic suggested the influence of hydrological, oceanographic and meteorological conditions of the Adriatic Sea in modulating the natural biogeochemistry and accumulation of this element in marine life (Fattorini et al., 2008). It is however unlikely that the As VHCL at Brbinjscica (98; Dugi Otok island, Croatia; Fig. 2b; Annexes A,C), away from any major source of As contamination ( Salivas-Decaux et al., 2009), arose solely from this general environmental influence. The island of Dugi Otok is predominantly composed of karstified carbonate rocks. ...
