CSIC ORCID ; Landete-Castillejos, Tomás CSIC ORCID ; Luccarini, Siriano; Gallego, Laureano CSIC ORCID; Morimando, Federico; Varuzza, Paolo; Zaccaroni, Marco | Fecha de publicación: | 2020 | Editor: | Springer Nature | Citación: | Environmental Science and Pollution Research 27: 36121–36131 (2020) | Resumen: | The European roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) is one of the most abundant ungulate species in Europe. Many studies have investigated its distribution, behavior, and ecology, but few have focused on its role as bioindicators for pollutants, particularly regarding antlers, which has been shown to indicate also deer physiology. The presence of geothermal power plants can induce accumulation of potentially polluting elements (such as Tl, S, and Pb). Thus, we collected roe deer samples from areas of Tuscany (Italy) where power plants are present. They were divided according to whether their home range included areas close or far from geothermal power plants. We analyzed the body measurements and the profile of the minerals in the liver and antlers tissues using the ICP-OES technique. Results showed that livers from roe deer close to power plant accumulated higher quantity of Bi, Co, Ni, Tl, and S compared to controls. Males culled close to geothermal power plants had significantly lower values for weight and chest circumference, and also, the antlers showed higher values for Li and Sr in the first sampling position. Thus, despite the small sample size in this preliminary study, antlers and livers of roe deer seem to be a bioindicator of industrial impact on the environment. | Versión del editor: | https://doi.org/10.1007/s11356-020-09708-x | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/221637 | DOI: | 10.1007/s11356-020-09708-x | ISSN: | 0944-1344 | E-ISSN: | 1614-7499 |
