title: Species-Specific Element Accumulation in Mollusc Shells: A Framework for Trace Element-Based Marine Environmental Biomonitoring
abstract: Mollusc shells serve as valuable biogeochemical archives of natural or anthropogenic processes occurring in the aquatic environment throughout the life of the molluscs. One such process is trace element pollution, which can be assessed by analyzing the elemental composition of mollusc shells. However, different mollusc species accumulate elements in their shells from the aquatic environment at varying concentrations, and specific patterns of this accumulation remain largely unknown.
