Slide presentation describing a 2003–2004 pilot transplant study of Corbicula (clams). Clean clams from the North River were size-classed, placed in cages, and deployed at three South River sites. The study tracked total mercury (ppm dry mass), shell growth, and reproduction/die-off, and reports site-specific tissue Hg values ranging from about 0.04 to 0.57 ppm.
