Also, improve documentation on the use of these values in salt water and incorporate criteria that take account of bioaccumulation. |
Evidence appears to be satisfactory to conclude high bioaccumulation and biomagnification. |
Moving up the food chain, methylmercury concentrations increase, in a process known as bioaccumulation. |
Biological processes are primarily biotransformation, biodegradation, and bioaccumulation. |
However, DDT released before that time is still present in the environment and in various organisms in the process of bioaccumulation. |
The Annex lists criteria for persistence, bioaccumulation, long-range environmental transport and adverse effects. |
