## Abstract We explore the consequences of consumerโresource 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
## Abstract Seasonality in biomagnification of persistent organic pollutants (POPs; polychlorinated biphenyls, chlorinated pesticides, and brominated flame retardants) in Arctic marine pelagic food webs was investigated in Kongsfjorden, Svalbard, Norway. Trophic magnification factors (TMFs; average
## Abstract Trophic transfer of chlorinated organic contaminants was investigated in an aquatic community composed of zooplankton, benthic invertebrates, and fish. Biomagnification, measured as the increase in lipidโbased chemical concentrations in predator over that in prey, was observed for highโ
