摘要

A bioassessment multiple stressor study was conducted at 12 sites in Cache Slough, California during the Spring and Fall of 2012, 2013 and 2014. Specific study goals were to: (1) collect and identify benthic macroinvertebrates and develop a suite of benthic metrics; (2) measure total organic carbon (TOC), grain size, bulk metals, simultaneously extracted metals (SEM) and acid volatile sulfides (AVS), and 8 pyrethroids in sediment; (3) measure basic water quality parameters; and, (4) use univariate and stepwise multiple regressions and canonical correlation analysis to determine the relationship between various benthic metrics (i.e., taxa richness, abundance) and TOC, grain size, metals (bulk metals and SEM/AVS) and pyrethroids using the 3-year database. Five benthic metrics showed statistically significant relationships with environmental variables. Taxonomic Richness, a metric that decreases with stress, tended to be greater in less organic-rich, coarser sediments and the apparent relationships with toxicants such as pyrethroids or metals were diminished when these conditions are taken into account. The % Amphipod metric, which has a variable response to environmental stressors, showed a direct relationship with arsenic, an inverse relationship with chromium and an inverse relationship with % silt. The % Corbicula metric, which has a variable response to environmental stressors, was directly correlated with cypermethrin and nickel. Therefore, it appears that Corbicula tends to be associated with more contaminated sediments in Cache Slough. The metric % Collectors/Filterers & Collectors/Gatherers, a metric that increases in stressed environments, was reported to increase in sediments with higher arsenic concentrations. This relationship makes ecological sense because this metric should increase with an increase in arsenic concentrations. The benthic metric Abundance, a metric that decreases with stress, was reported to be inversely correlated with % TOC and % silt. The abundance of benthic communities increases in coarser, less organic rich sediments. In general, relatively few statistically significant relationships were observed between the various combinations of benthic metrics and environmental variables. Benthic communities in Cache Slough appear to be more closely associated with sediment characteristics and with metals concentrations than with the pyrethroid concentrations.
