Differences between Pinus pinea and Pinus pinaster as bioindicators of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons [PDF]
, 2011 The potential of Univariate and Multivariate Analysis and specifically Principal Components Analysis (PCA), has been employed to assess the performance of pine needles as bioindicators of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and particularly emphasize

Sponges as bioindicators for microparticulate pollutants? [PDF]
Environmental Pollution, 2020 ABSTRACT Amongst other threats, the world’s oceans are faced with man-made pollution, including an increasing number of microparticulate pollutants. Sponges, aquatic filter-feeding animals, are able to incorporate fine foreign particles, and thus may be a potential bioindicator for microparticulate pollutants.

Determination of heavy metal deposition in the county of Obrenovac (Serbia) using mosses as bioindicators, III: Copper (Cu), Iron (Fe) and Mercury (Hg) [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2007 In this study, the deposition of three heavy metals (Cu, Fe and Hg) in four moss taxa (Bryum argenteum, Bryum capillare, Brachythecium sp. and Hypnum cupressiforme) in the county of Obrenovac (Serbia) is presented. The distribution of average heavy metal

Birds as Bioindicators: Revealing the Widespread Impact of Microplastics
BirdsThe global crisis of plastic pollution, particularly involving microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs), has profound ecological implications. Birds, serving as bioindicators, are especially susceptible to these pollutants.
