Abstract
    The mercury content of sole from the North Sea and the Irish Sea was followed during a 5 yr period (1973-1977). With the exception for the first 2 yr, no significant difference was found between the 2 areas, nor was there a clear trend in the evolution of the mercury concentrations in time. The average mercury content varied between 0.19 and 0.31 mg/kg (North Sea) and 0.21 and 0.41 mg/kg (Irish Sea).
