Description

With the aim of pre-selecting bioindicators for Sr-90 among the marine algae, monthly sampling in three different fixed locations, have benn done and strontium and calcium concentrations have been determined in the most abundant species of algae in the region of Angra dos Reis. In order to establish the influence of seasonal variations, the sea water salinity and strontium and calcium concentrations have also been analysed. (E.G.)

Abstract (Portuguese)

Com o objetivo de pre-selecionar bioindicadores para Sr-90 entre algas marinhas, amostragens mensais em tres regioes fixas diferentes, tem sido feitas e concentracoes de calcio e estroncio tem sido determinadas nas especies de algas da regiao de Angra dos Reis. A fim de estabelecer a influencia da variacao sazonal, a salinidade da agua do mar e concentracoes de estroncio e calcio tem sido analizadas. (E.G.)
