“…The values are similar to those reported in the literature (Bohn & McElroy 1976 ;Cross et al 1970 greater in Chironomus riparius than in Chaoborus punctipennis, possibly because chironomids are more intimately associated with the sediments . Variation among seasons and between the central pool and the anoxic arm were not significant .…”

“…The average concentrations were 858 and 2 941 µg g -1 for Chaoborus punctipennis and Chironomus riparius, respectively, while the concentration factors averaged 1 021 and 5 111 . These concentrations are within the ranges of those reported for other invertebrates (Stevenson & Ufret 1966 ;Cross et al 1970 ;Windom & Smith 1972) . The considerably great concentration in C. riparius was probably related to the greater demands of iron by this species because of the presence of iron containing hemoglobin .…”

“…Organisms either remain constant, discriminate against, or concentrate heavy metals from the environment (Cross et al 1970) . The relationship between the concentration and the amount in the environment varies with the environmental conditions (Pilkey & Goodell 1963) .…”

Ham's Lake was destratified in the summers of 1977 and 1978 by pumping surface water to the bottom . However, an arm was prevented from mixing by a submerged dam of a former farm pond and remained stratified . The concentration of manganese in the water increased to over 5 000 tg 1-1 in the hypolimnion of the anoxic arm in summer . Soluble manganese averaged 28% of total concentration . Total iron concentrations were relatively high in the water and sorbed iron values were extremely low in the sediments . Soluble iron averaged 12% of total concentration . Zinc values were low in the water and sediments . Chaoborus punctipennis and Chironomus riparius concentrated iron and zinc and discriminated against manganese . Concentration factors were unaffected by mixing .

“…Studies dealing with polluted areas (Tulkki 1960, 1964, Leppäkoski 1975, Rosenberg et cii. 1975 or river mouths (Särkkä 1969) cannot be used and studies reporting only abundance (Sjöblom 1955, Valtonen 1976: values of 1962, 1964 or carried out with other sieves (Dahlström and Sormunen 1965, Bagge and Ilus 1973: values of 1968-1970, Valtonen 1976: values of 1974 can only be used for very generalized comparisons.…”
