A Proposed Method of Abstract Preparation<\/p>\n
Abstracts written in this format tend to run from 150 to 250 words rarely going beyond 250 words. Remember, the more you write the more he has to edit and the better chance you have to do something wrong.<\/p>\n
Your abstract must begin with a citation for the article you are writing on. This citation must follow the format laid out in the journal Aquatic Ecosystem Health and Management. Miller will edit the citation just as hard as the text. Be sure to follow the format precisely (Every comma and period in its place).<\/p>\n

\n <\/st1_place> has been contaminated with high levels of mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) by point and nonpoint sources resulting in elevated contaminant levels in fish and macroinvertebrates.

\n <\/st1_place> Elevated levels of Hg, Cd, and PCBs were found in zebra muscle tissues after a 143-day exposure. Mercury levels ranged from 2.6 to 6.1 ng\/g wet weight and cadmium from 76 to 213 ng\/g wet weight. The composition of PCB congeners was similar throughout the river. This study suggests that zebras muscles are a sentinel species in the Mississippi River and may be important in trophic transfer of contaminants due to their increasing importance as a food source for certain fish and waterfowl.<\/p><\/p>\n \n\"Looking for a Similar Assignment?
