Sediment contamination, by habitat, in the Tampa Bay estuarine system (1993-1999): PAHs, pesticides and PCBs.

Abstract:

:More than 760 Tampa Bay (Florida, U.S.A.) sediment samples have been analyzed for organic contaminants (PAHs, organochlorine pesticides, and PCBs) since 1993. Data were analyzed to assess status by habitat (defined by overlapping salinity zones and sediment type). The habitats most degraded by PAHs and pesticides were generally located in lower salinity, fine-grained sediment habitats, which are typically confined to the Hillsborough River. PCB contamination was more common in mesohaline waters of the Palm and Hillsborough rivers. Higher salinity portions of the bay, where medium to coarse sand-sized sediments predominate, showed little evidence of contamination by PAHs, PCBs and pesticides other than lindane.
