Trace metal (Fe Co, Ni Cu Zn, Cd and Pb) concentrations in zooplankton from the mixed layer were investigated at 8 coastal and 20 offshore stations in the western Bay of Bengal during the summer monsoon of 2003 The ecotoxicological importance of trace metal uptake was apparent within the Bay of Bengal zooplankton There was a distinct spatial heterogeneity of metals with highest concentrations in the upwelling zones of the southeast coast moderate concentrations in the cyclonic eddy of the northeast coast and lowest concentrations in the open ocean warm gyre regions The average trace metal concentrations (mu g g(-1)) in coastal zooplankton (Fe 44894 1 +/- 121982, Co, 46 2 +/- 4 6, Ni 62 8 +/- 65 Cu 849 +/- 67 Zn 7546 8 +/- 1051 7 Cd 462 +/- 56 Pb 192 +/- 2 6) were higher than in offshore zooplankton (Fe, 3423 4 +/- 681 6 Co 19 5 +/- 3 81 Ni 25 3 +/- 7 3, Cu, 29 4 +/- 4 2, Zn 502 3 +/- 124 3 Cd, 14 3 +/- 2 9 Pb, 3 2 +/- 2 0) A comparison of average trace metal concentrations in zooplankton from the Bay of Bengal showed enrichment of Fe Co Ni, Cu Zn Cd, and Pb in coastal zooplankton may be related to metal absorption from primary producers and differences in metal concentrations in phytoplankton from coastal waters (upwelling zone and cyclonic eddy) compared with offshore waters (warm gyre) Zooplankton showed a great capacity for accumulations of trace metals, with average concentration factors of 4 867 929 +/- 569 971 246 757 +/- 51 321 337 180 +/- 125 725 43 480 +/- 11 212 1 046 371 +/- 110 286, 601 679 +/- 213 949 and 15 420 +/- 9201 for Fe Co, Ni Cu Zn Cd, and Pb with respect to dissolved concentrations in coastal and offshore waters of the Bay of Bengal (C) 2009 Wiley Periodicals Inc Environ Toxicol 25 622-633 2010
