Assessment of toxic and trace elements in the sea urchin Sterechinus neumayeri in the antartic marine environment
Sea urchins are marine and benthic invertebrates, many of them sessile or with reduced mobility. The species Sterechinus neumayeri (Meissner, 1900) is the most abundant in shallow Antarctic seawater, from the coast until 400 m depth. Comandante Ferraz Antartic Station (EACF), that is part of the Bra...
