Abstract
A mining tailing dam rupture in Brazil in November 2015 released millions of tons of mining waste into the Rio Doce ecosystem, leading to long-term aquatic ecosystem impacts. Although multiple lines of evidence indicate tailings associations with potentially toxic elements in estuarine sediments and biological impact and bioaccumulation pathways in fishes, the extent of contamination in base benthic species is still largely unknown. Moreover, Rare Earth Elements (REE) have not received any attention in this regard. This study assessed REE in fiddler crabs (Minuca rapax) sampled from the Rio Doce estuary in 2017, nearly 2 years after the disaster. The ΣREE in crab hepatopancreas and muscle were high (327.83 mg kg-1 w.w. and 33.84 mg kg-1 w.w., respectively, compared to other assessments in crabs, indicating a preference for REE bioaccumulation in the hepatopancreas compared to muscle. Neodimium, La, and Ce were detected at the highest concentrations. The REE from the Rio Doce Basin were, thus, transported and deposited in the estuary with the mine tailings slurry, leading to bioaccumulation in crabs. This may lead to trophic effects and other ecological impacts not readily measured by typical impact assessment studies, revealing an invisible and not typically acknowledged damage to the Rio Doce estuary.

Abstract
The blue swimmer crab, Portunus pelagicus, is an edible abundant crustacean found in many seas around the world, including the Arabian Gulf. In this study, the concentrations of six metal ions in the white and brown meats of P. pelagicus from four sites in Bahrain were determined. P. pelagicus was found to accumulate Zn2+ and Cu2+ higher than other metal ions in the order of Zn2+ > Cu2+ > Cd2+ > Ni2+ > Cr3+, while Pb2+ was not detected. The overall average concentrations of Zn2+, Cu2+, Cr3+, Ni2+, and Cd2+ in white meat were 236.2, 69.5, 0.109, 0.159, and 0.273 mg/kg, while in brown meat, they were 235.4, 199.2, 0.133, 1.25, and 4.87 mg/kg based on dry weight, respectively. Concentrations of Pb2+ and Cd2+ were safe according to Bahrain's and European Commission guidelines. The estimated weekly intake (EWI) values of Zn2+, Cu2+, Pb2+, and Cd2+ via consumption of crab's white meat (edible tissue) were 102.1, 30.1, 0.042, and 0.12 µg/kg/week, respectively, which are far lower than the maximum recommended values established by the FAO/WHO. The hazard quotient (HQ) values of individual trace metal ions and the synergistic effects of total trace metal ion (hazard index) were below 1, indicating that there is no potential health risk on the consumption of crab edible tissues (white meat). However, elevated levels of Cd2+ (0.05-1.73 mg/kg wet weight) in the brown meat (hepatopancreas) were detected. The female P. pelagicus accumulated high levels of Zn2+ and Cu2+ in the white meat, as well as Cu2+ in the brown meat compared to males. Additionally, it was found that Cu2+ and Cd2+ were significantly higher (p < 0.05) in brown meat compared to white meat. Higher concentrations (p < 0.05) of Zn2+, Cu2+, and Cd2+ were observed in crabs collected from sites that have harsher environmental conditions.

Abstract
Mangroves are productive ecosystems that are highly threatened by anthropogenic activities. We investigated the environmental quality of the Serinhaém river estuary located in a legally protected area. Through chemical analysis of sediments and tissues of Cardisoma guanhumi, in addition to bioassays with elutriate involving Nitokra sp. and Thalassiosira pseudonana, we determined the contamination status and risk factors related to trace metals in the estuary. For the sediment, the concentrations of Cr and Ni were above the limit established by CONAMA n° 454/2012 in the "City" site, and Cr above the TEL in all sampling sites. Ecotoxicological tests showed high toxicity in samples from "City" and "Tributary". The elements Cr, Mn, Ni and Zn were also higher in crabs from these sites. Cr levels exceeded the Brazilian limit for food consumption. The bioaccumulation factor was not significant. However, the overall analysis proved that this estuary is increasingly impacted by anthropogenic pressure.

Abstract
European marine waters are infested with plastic, with an average density of 1 plastic item in every four square-meters. Research relevant to MPs-NPs ingestion by wild decapods in European waters is limited, none of which regards the European spiny lobster. Totally 4102 plastic particles were extracted from the spiny lobster stomach tissues of both sexes. Out of the 63 samples analysed only three (4.8%) of them were found with no plastic particles. The range of number of MPs in stomachs was from 20 to 273 MPs individual-1. The 98.3% were fragments. In total 3833 plastic particles were extracted from the gill tissues of both sexes. MPs were found in all samples (n = 50),99.2% of the detected particles were fragments. The MPs detected in gills ranged from 11 to 339 MPs individual-1. The DLS method was used in order to evaluate the NPs presence. Nanoplastics were detected in 22.6% of stomachs and in the 48.1% of gills. A total of 43 polymer types were identified in both tissues. Also, our study assessed the accumulation of heavy metals at the edible tail muscle. Certain elements were detected above the EU's Maximum Residue Level, including arsenic. The present results are alarming and the potential human health implications could be serious.

Abstract
Coastal environmental pollution is a global problem that has been growing for decades. For this reason, different approaches have been sought to address and detect its environmental implications. Some organisms are considered bioindicators or biomonitors of contamination, which provide information about environmental quality. Previous studies used the crab Neoelice granulata (Brachyura, Varunidae) as bioindicator of the presence of metals by the analysis of soft tissues to evaluate physiological and molecular markers. However, the contaminant levels accumulated in these soft tissues have shown to be affected by seasonal variations, suggesting that environmental assessments based on soft tissue samples may be unreliable. Within this framework, we aimed to describe the crab body (carapace) variations related to a known soil metal gradient in a Patagonian salt marsh and to evaluate the use of the body shape as an alternative biomarker for monitoring the quality of salt marsh systems. We studied the carapace shape variations using geometric morphometrics (GM) based on a 2D structure with object symmetry. We observed symmetric and asymmetric components of carapace shape variation. While the latter was not found associated with a gradient of contamination by metals, the symmetric component responded to environmental changes; therefore, it could be considered a stress biomarker related to metal contamination. Consequently, we recommended using GM analysis because it is inexpensive, faster and non-seasonal and could be used on living organisms, avoiding destroying individuals to measure the environmental stress.

Abstract
Trace metal contamination is among the major concerns of stakeholders due to its potential adverse effects on biota and humans, even at low concentrations. Few studies have recently focused on the ability of organisms to depurate trace metals from different tissues. Therefore, we carried out this study to evaluate the bioconcentration of trace metals (Cd, Zn, Pb, Ni, Mn, Fe, Cr, Cu) and the depuration process of these pollutants in two tissues (soft tissue and carapace) in an estuarine benthic crab model, Neohelice granulata. The results indicate that Cu and Zn were the highest bioconcentrated metals in crab tissues, while other metals, such as Pb and Cr, were found in sediments but were not bioconcentrated. On the other hand, Cd was found in crabs but not in sediments. The depuration indicates a total decline in Ni and a significant decrease in Cu and Fe in the soft tissues after the experiment. However, the concentration of the trace metals in the carapace before and after the depuration did not show any significant variation except in the Mn, in which the levels decreased significantly at the end of the depuration. Thus, we recommend continuing to explore metal detoxification in bioindicator species, such as N. granulata, in order to understand the efficiency of the mechanisms of depuration of trace metals.

Abstract
The detoxification process of trace metals in the estuarine burrowing crab Neohelice granulata, after previously being exposed to anthropogenic pressures in the field, is described for the first time. The objectives of this study were (a) to assess the metal content (Cd, Cu, Pb, Zn, Mn, Ni, Cr, Fe) in the sediments and the uptake of these elements in the hepatopancreas of N. granulata; (b) to quantify trace metal concentrations in the hepatopancreas before and after the detoxification experiment; and (c) to relate this information to metallothionein (MT) induction or reversibility. The detoxification assay was performed for 25 days with artificial seawater under controlled conditions in a culture chamber. The results showed higher uptake and bioaccumulation of Zn and Cu from the sediments, and the hepatopancreas exhibited increased levels of Zn and lower concentrations of the rest of the metals and MTs after the assay, mainly Fe and Mn that were significantly lower. We conclude that trace metals could be translocated to and accumulated in the hepatopancreas, the main metabolic organ, and then eliminated under controlled conditions with corresponding reversibility of MTs.

Abstract
Growing evidence has demonstrated that microplastics (MPs) are available for a wide range of marine organisms, with filter-feeding bivalves and crabs being especially vulnerable. The crab Neohelice granulata is considered a key and structuring species in the Bahía Blanca Estuary (BBE) (SW Atlantic) and its ecological role makes this species especially vulnerable to several pollutants. In this study, male specimens of N. granulata and water samples were collected at three sites in the BBE for the presence of MPs. Different types of MPs were found in all the crabs and the water column samples, although the most frequent were fibers <500-1500 μm, mainly blue. This is the first study to identify MPs in the gills and digestive tract of N. granulata. Moreover, gills presented higher total abundances of MPs than the digestive tract, which suggests that in this case the main uptake of MPs would be by adherence to the gills.

The Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) is one of the world's most widespread bivalves and a suitable species for biomonitoring metals in coastal environments. In the present research, wild individuals were collected from an Argentinian estuary and the coastal beaches nearby. The concentrations of eight metals (Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn) were quantified in the soft tissues of the Pacific oyster. Among the metals, Cu, Fe and Zn reached the highest concentrations in the soft tissues over the rest of the elements. The results showed the highest values to be estuary related, with the beach site achieving the lowest values. These results possibly lie on the impact of human activities surrounding the estuary, as well as streams and rivers that outflow within it. Higher Cu and Zn levels, both port related, were mainly found toward the outer estuary. On the other hand, high levels of Cr, Fe and Mn were found toward the inner zone of the estuary, an area with sewage sludge from the cities located on the margins of the BBE. Regarding the potential risk to public health, Cu and Zn levels found in C. gigas were above national and international safety guidelines in 100% and 11% of the samples, respectively.

Abstract
An extensive population of the burrowing crab, Neohelice granulata, inhabits the intertidal areas of the Bahía Blanca estuary, a moderately polluted temperate ecosystem located to the southwest of the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. In order to determine the metal-accumulating ability of this species, concentrations of Cd, Cu, Pb, Ni, Zn, Mn, Cr, and Fe in soft tissues of adult specimens were measured. Subsequently, the bioconcentration factors (BCFs) of all heavy metals were determined using levels of concentrations previously obtained in intertidal sediments. The results showed concentrations above the detection limit in soft tissues of male and female crabs for all metals except Pb and Cr. BCF > 1 were obtained for Cd, Cu, and Zn, indicating that these metals are accumulated and biomagnified. However, BCF values < 1 were found for the rest of the metals (Mn, Ni, and Fe). The findings of metal accumulation in soft tissues of N. granulata is of great importance taking into account that this is a key species within this temperate ecosystem, playing a major role in the transference of pollutants to higher trophic levels.

Abstract
Patagonian salt marshes are not affected by pollution, but historical mining wastes are a continuous source of metals to salt marsh in San Antonio Bay. The present study evaluated the concentration of metals in sediments and used the halophyte Spartina spp. and the crab N. granulata as biomonitors. The levels of metals in sediment and organisms in SAB remained at levels corresponding to a slight enrichment or contamination. The highest levels corresponded to innermost sites of the Encerrado channel and close to the mining wastes. Spartina is a phytostabilizer so its aboveground tissues do not reflect the concentrations in the sediment; although, it retains the metals in its belowground tissues and in the rhizosediment. N. granulata showed to be a useful biomonitor for Pb, but not for the other metals.

Abstract
Coastal areas are urbanized and industrialized environments, affected by dredging operations, discharges of untreated municipal wastewaters, and farming. Developing countries are in continuous growth and will deal, in a close future, with the highest rate of coastal transformation, posing serious risks for the ecological and environmental value of ecosystem assets. This research aims to study the dissolved and particulate Cr, Ni, Pb and Zn values within an argentinean estuarine environment which is currently under human-induced pressures. Concentrations of all the metals under analyses showed seasonal variability of both dissolved and particulate metals. An important outcome of this study was that dissolved Cr, Pb and Zn attained maximum values and overall increased concentrations with respect to previous records from the same area. Indeed, the highest concentrations were found during the dredging operations or in association with increases in the metal levels from wastewater discharges. The results also indicated that human activities contributed the least to the dissolved Ni concentrations. The particulate fraction of Cr, Ni and Zn showed an upward trend in the concentrations, particularly during the last two sampling dates, being also positively correlated between each other. Regarding their respective environmental quality standards, many samples achieved dissolved Cr and Zn concentrations above the maximum values recommended by international guidelines. Thus, this study highlights the possibility of stressors like dredging activities and municipal wastewaters to cause increases in the water column pollution levels.

Abstract
The silverside Odontesthes argentinensis is an economically significant resource for commercial fisheries in South America. We evaluated the presence of trace elements in the stomach content and fish tissues (muscle and otoliths) of O. argentinensis. In addition, we assessed the presence of trace elements in its prey (zooplankton) and in seawater in a coastal temperate area. The most abundant trace elements found in the water, zooplankton, stomach content, and fish tissues (muscle and otoliths) constituted of Ba, Mn, Sr and Zn, while Cd, Cu and Pb were observed in lower concentrations. We concluded that O. argentinensis specimens captured from the environment, within the length range analyzed for muscle samples (total length: <21cm), are deemed fit for human consumption because the concentrations of trace elements mostly meet the standards established in the Argentine Food Code. The information obtained in this study is vital for O. argentinensis farming in closed systems.

Abstract
Contamination by heavy metals causes serious effects in marine systems. Nowadays, the combination of chemical and biological data is recommended in monitoring programs. Metallothioneins (MT) are early-warning signals of metal exposure and are widely used in biomonitoring. The present research evaluates the heavy metals levels in sediments and the MT synthesis in the crab Neohelice granulata from the Bahía Blanca Estuary (BBE). Then, the recovery capabilities of N. granulata followed by a depuration phase are assessed. Results demonstrate a slow decline in the level of metals in the study area. In relation to MT, female crabs showed elevated MT when compared to males. Furthermore, MT synthesis diminished after the depuration phase. These data constitute the first MT information in organisms from the BBE and may be considered as baseline for future studies in this matter. Although pollution level found was low, further biomonitoring considering both types of data is recommended.

Abstract
The Natural Protected Area San Antonio bay is of particular importance for its congregation of migratory shorebirds and it has been declared one of the Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network International site (WHSRN). Present study represents the first assessment of variation on oxidative stress biomarkers in male crab Neohelice granulata from San Antonio bay (Río Negro, Argentina) under field conditions, associated mainly to metal contamination coming from passive mining wastes. Three sites were sampled once every three months from November 2012 to August 2013 within this sea inlet (Pile, Fishery and Port) and a control site at the southeast of the bay (Punta Perdices). Accumulation of Ni, Zn, Cr and Al varied only with seasons although without a constant trend, meanwhile Cd, Cu and Pb also varied among sites being highest in Pile and Port. Biochemical results indicated that variations in catalase activity was only site specific being maximum in Pile; meanwhile lipid radical, α-tocopherol and metallothioneins were only seasonal specific being higher in autumn and winter. Seasonal variation was also found for total thioles, being the content higher in summer and autumn than in winter. Correlation analysis revealed that malondialdehyde and α-tocopherol have a positive association with Al and negative with Ni, meanwhile GST has a positive association with Fe. Crabs from the closest area to the waste pile did not exhibit a differentiated oxidative pressure despite the higher accumulation of metals. It is possible that crabs from contaminated areas have developed a tolerance to metals, indicating a strong ecotoxicological selective pressure. More studies are needed to assess whether there is a transfer of metals through the food chain.

Abstract
Concentrations of six trace metals were determined in the eggshells of American oystercatchers (Haematopus palliatus) from the Bahía Blanca estuary, Argentina. All metals measured in selected samples presented concentrations above the detection limit. Means found for Cu, Pb, Cr, Zn and Ni were as follow: 2.02±0.52, 7.23±2.33, 0.78±0.03, 2.22±1.13 and 6.05±0.89mg/kg dw. The mean concentrations of Cd found were surprisingly high: 13.28±3.38mg/kg dw. Previous studies made on prey items of the American oystercatchers showed low to medium concentrations of the six trace metals. This may indicate a possible transfer of the metals that are available in the environment through food chains. Our study indicates that American oystercatchers sequester heavy metals in their eggshells. Therefore the eggshells may be useful as biomonitors for trace metal contamination in the Bahía Blanca estuary.
