Several fish species, notably salmon, respond to the odors of their predators in an adaptive manner (Table 12.4). Coho and spring salmon retreated to the lower parts of a fish ladder when rinses of human hand, bear paw, dog meat, or sea lion meat were added to the water upstream. Even the odor of deer feet had the same effect (Brett and MacKinnon, 1954). L-Serine was identified as the active compound in mammalian skin (Idler etal, 1956). Arctic char, Salvelinus alpinus, also responds to L-serine from human hand wash, while D-serine and several other amino acids were not active. L-Serine is less active than the whole hand wash, suggesting that two or more compounds are required for the full response (Jones and Hara, 1982).

Between 1986 and 1988, levels of BDE-47, -99, and-100 were measured in whitefish (Coregonus spp.) from a remote mountain lake in Northern Sweden (Lake Storvindeln), Arctic char Salvelinus alpinus) from a heavily populated late (Lake Vattem) in south-central Sweden with numerous municipal and industrial point sources, and in trout (Salmo trutta] and pike (Esox lucius from several sites along Dalslands Canal in west central Sweden (Jansson et al. 1993). No point sources of PBDEs were identified from these sites. Whitefish from the remote lake contained the lowest levels (26 ng g lipid weight) of PBDEs, whereas the Arctic char, from a heavily populated lake, contained 520 ng/g lipid...

Between 1988 and 1992, Cs levels declined in sediments from 52 lakes in southern Finland by 27% and in fish tissues by 26-39%. Radiocesium-137 concentrations in whole freshwater fishes from Norwegian lakes contaminated by Chernobyl fallout were quite variable. Major sources of Cs variations included the fish weight and growth rate, and these were related to fish age and diet. Change over time in dissolved phase Cs concentrations of lake water is significantly related to water residence time and mean lake depth these variables have been incorporated into models to predict estimates of Cs decline in freshwater systems. Radiocesium-137 activity in muscle of brown trout (Salmo trutta) and Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) from six lakes in Cumbria, England, between June 1986 and October 1988 were highest between December 1986 and March 1987, with maximum values of about 1200 Bq/kg FW in trout and 350 in char. Maximum Cs values were related to the initial concentration of Cs in both water...
