The different toxicity characteristics of arsenic species result in discrepant ecological risk.The predicted no-effect concentrations（PNECs） 43.65, 250.18, and 2.00 × 10^3μg/L were calculated for As（III）, As...The different toxicity characteristics of arsenic species result in discrepant ecological risk.The predicted no-effect concentrations（PNECs） 43.65, 250.18, and 2.00 × 10^3μg/L were calculated for As（III）, As（V）, and dimethylarsinic acid in aqueous phase, respectively. With these PNECs, the ecological risk from arsenic species in Pearl River Delta in China and Kwabrafo stream in Ghana was evaluated. It was found that the risk from As（III） and As（V）in the samples from Pearl River Delta was low, while much high in Kwabrafo stream. This study implies that ecological risk of arsenic should be evaluated basing on its species.展开更多
