Twenty biota species were collected from the Northern Beibu Gulf to understand the heavy metal pollution status and biomagnification characteristics. Mean concentrations (μg/g) of Mn, Zn, Pb, Cr, Ni, As, Cu, and Cd in the biota species were 0.99, 38.33, 0.14, 0.079, 0.085, 51.10, 7.92, and 0.21, respectively. As levels in most biota species exceeded the corresponding guidelines. Crabs were detected with high metal accumulation ability for each heavy metal except Pb. The ranges of δ¹⁵N and δ¹³C in organisms were from 8.0‰ to 15.6‰ and from −21.4‰ to −15.6‰, respectively. Cr, Mn, Ni, and As showed potential biomagnification trends in the food webs. The EDI values of these elements decreased by the sequence of As > Zn > Cu > Mn > Cd > Pb > Ni > Cr. High THQ and CR values for As indicated a potential health risk by consumption of these aquatic products.
