  • Statistical analysis and speciation modeling of copper in Oregon highway runoff

    Creator:
    Bloomquist, Don J.
    Abstract:
    Low levels of copper have been shown to impair the olfactory system of threatened and endangered (T&E) salmon, decreasing their predator avoidance behavior and likely increasing mortality. However, only dissolved copper (dissCu) present as the cupric ion (Cu2+) and weakly complexed species are truly bioavailable. Previous studies indicate the vast...
