This study examined the accumulation of heavy metals (Hg, Zn, Cd, As, Pb) across trophic levels in the food webs of 20 lakes that varied in characteristics like size, water chemistry, and land use. Metals were measured in water, two sizes of zooplankton, and fish. The goals were to understand how watershed factors influence metal levels in water and how metal concentrations in lower trophic levels predict levels in fish. Hg and Zn showed similar patterns of accumulation, biomagnifying up the food web, where
