## Abstract Ammonia naturally accumulates to high concentrations in nonsurficial marine sediments. It can also interfere and confound interpretation of toxicity from persistent anthropogenic chemicals in tests with laboratory amphipods. Renewal of overlying water has become a standardized procedure
Toxicity identification of sediment pore waters from four sites in the Upper Scheldt (Belgium) was assessed using a simplified and discriminative toxicity identification evaluation procedure. The samples from all locations exhibited acute toxicity toward the freshwater crustacean Thamnocephalus plat
