The THg data for tunas were compiled from published literature. We compared the THg bioaccumulation curve for lancetfish from this study to the bioaccumulation curves for two well-studied tuna species to examine how life history and feeding ecology affect THg accumulation with size.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nspecimen_id (unitless)\nspeciesID (unitless)\ndate (unitless)\nlatitude (degrees_north)\nlongitude (degrees_east)\nlength_cm (centimeters (cm))\nweight_kg (kilograms (kg))\nwetTHg_ng_g (nanograms per gram (ng/g))\nreference (unitless)\n | BCO-DMO | bcodmo_dataset_948928_v1 |
