Mercury and selenium chemical characteristics and speciation data of bird, fish, and earthworm tissues
Birds (Clark's grebe, Aechmophorus clarkii; Forster's Tern, Sterna forsteri), fish (Peacock bass, Cichla temensis, Cichla monoculus; Pescada, Plagioscion squamosissimus) and earthworms were analyzed for selenium, total mercury, and methyl mercury concentration and mercury speciation. A Cla...

Fish necropsies were performed to obtain muscle and liver.
