Selenium (Se) uptake by primary producers is the most variable and important step in
determining Se concentrations at higher trophic levels in aquatic food webs. We gathered …

In aquatic ecosystems, there is often no correlation between the total concentration of
selenium present in the water column and the toxic effects observed in that environment …

This chapter addresses the characteristics and nature of organic selenium (Se) toxicity to
aquatic organisms, based on the most current state of scientific knowledge. As such, the …

Filled with practical guidance on how to conduct selenium risk assessments in the aquatic
environment, this book offers the latest information on assessment techniques, gives the …

The main route of exposure for selenium (Se) is dietary, yet regulations lack biologically
based protocols for evaluations of risk. We propose here an ecosystem‐scale model that …

In this chapter we identify the state-of-the-science regarding selenium (Se) bioaccumulation
and trophic transfer. We discuss Se bioaccumulation and how its unique attributes tie …

Uranium mining and milling operations have the potential to release trace elements such as
arsenic, molybdenum, nickel, selenium and uranium and ions (eg, sulfate, ammonium) into …

The discharge of aquaculture wastewater and the excessive selenium in aquaculture
effluent caused by selenium addition to aquatic feed are posing a serious risk for the marine …

Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element, which, with multiple oxidation states and six
stable isotopes, has been suggested as a potentially powerful paleoenvironmental proxy. In …

There is increasing recognition of the importance of dietary pathways in determining metal
body burdens in marine organisms. With a simple kinetic model that requires information …
