Anzali and Gomishan wetlands are considered as two of the most important wetlands in southern coast of Caspian Sea. To investigate mercury accumulation in these ecosystems, total mercury concentrations were measured in the muscle tissue of two fish species. Higher mercury concentrations were detected in C. carpio, an omnivorous benthic/pelagic species (Anzali wetland: 0.2 μg g(-1) wet weight; Gomishan wetland: 0.2 μg g(-1) wet weight), than in S. lucioperca, a carnivorous pelagic species (Anzali: 0.06 μg g(-1) wet weight; Gomishan: 0.15 μg g(-1) wet weight).
安扎利和戈米山湿地被认为是里海南海岸最重要的湿地之一。为了研究这些生态系统中的汞积累情况,测量了两种鱼类肌肉组织中的总汞浓度。结果表明,杂食性底栖/洄游物种鲤鱼(安扎利湿地:0.2μg/g 湿重;戈米山湿地:0.2μg/g 湿重)体内的汞浓度高于肉食性洄游物种梭鲈(安扎利:0.06μg/g 湿重;戈米山:0.15μg/g 湿重)。
