Abstract
Five species of fishes, two species of aquatic macrophytes, zooplankton, migratory goose feces, water and sediments from a eutrophic lake were analyzed for mercury, cadmium, lead and thallium. Mercury was detected in fishes and sediments only while cadmium and lead were detected in all components. Thallium was detected only in sediments. Sediments in the lake act as a ‘sink’ for the four metals.
