<em>Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, Ceriodaphnia dubia</em> and Rainbow Trout Responses to Uranium Exposure in Combination with Metals, Nutrients and Total Dissolved Solids mixtures Using Site Water Collected from Two Creeks Located in the Yukon

Abstract

This study evaluates the effects of uranium (U) in combination with metals (arsenic, copper, chromium and zinc), nutrients (ammonia, sulphate) and total dissolved solids (TDS) on Pseudokirchneriellasubcapitata, Ceriodaphniadubia and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss).Water was collected from two creeks in the Yukon and spiked with a mixture of U, metals, nutrients and TDS. Water was collected at two times of the year (summer and winter).
