Water quality and heavy metal monitoring in water, sediments, and tissues of Corbicula sp. from Bung Boraphet reservoir, Thailand

Bung Boraphet is the largest fresh water reservoir in Thailand. The accumulations of copper (Cu) and lead (Pb) in water, sediment and tissues of Asian clams (Corbicula sp.) within Bung Boraphet were carried out to indicate possible polluting effect of soil erosion and the dissolution of water solubl...
