Effects of acid mine drainage on larval Chironomus (diptera, chironomidae) measured with the multispecies freshwater biomonitor
The abandoned Sao Doming-os mine (Portugal) offers a pH and metal gradient of acid mine drainage (AMD), and is an ideal model for ecotoxicological studies. Short-term 24-h bioassays with water from the AMD (pH 3.3, 4.4, and 5.5, and control) were performed with fourth instars of Chironomus in the la...
