## Abstract Selenium (Se) is a chemical of concern at many locations across North America and elsewhere, and siteβspecific conditions are important when evaluating its bioaccumulation and effects in aquatic ecosystems. Most regulatory criteria and guidelines are based on waterborne Se concentration

## Abstract We explore the consequences of consumerβresource interactions for bioaccumulation in two aquatic systems (cadmium accumulation in __Dreissena polymorpha__ and polychlorinated biphenyl accumulation in calanoid copepods). We explicitly link the feeding and growth rates of consumers to the
Contaminated sediments that are not acutely toxic to aquatic organisms but contain bioaccumulable toxic substances present a common, yet poorly understood problem for regulatory decision makers. In order to recommend options to minimize bioaccumulation of these toxic substances, decision-makers need
