Impact/Purpose:
This short 1000 word report presents a series of research needs for improving the measurement and understanding of trophic magnification factors (TMFs). TMFs are useful measures of trophic magnification and represent the diet-weighted average biomagnification factor (BMF) of chemical residues across food webs. The report will hopefully spur research to address these needs.
