Trace Element Concentrations in Bearded Seals (Erignathus barbatus) Near Red Dog Mine Compared to Other Locations in Alaska
Table 3
Comparisons of element concentrations in
liver of bearded seals between this and other studies. Concentration units are μg/g wet weight and are summarized as the
arithmetic mean and standard deviation for comparison with other studies. Mackey
et al. [14] and Becker et al. [13] used the same samples from the Alaska Marine
Mammal Tissue Archival Project. We present the results of Mackey et al. [14]
except when Becker et al. [13] provide data on different elements.
