Abstract: The impact of urban and agricultural development on sediment quality in the Alvarado Lagoon region in the southern Gulf of Mexico requires an examination of the historical behavior of potential toxic metals (PTMs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Consequently, this study aims to assess the ecotoxicological hazards that benthic species and human consumers face in the area. These results are crucial for economic activities in the region and can help prevent future hazards. We examined two sediment pr… Show more
