HYDROCARBONS IN SEDIMENTS AND BENTHIC ORGANISMS FROM A DREDGE SPOIL DISPOSAL SITE IN RI SOUND

It is the purpose of this study to investigate the spatial distribution of hydrocarbons both in upper Rhode Island Sound surface sediments and in the commercially important shellfish from the area, the ocean quahog (Acartia islandica). In doing so, an attempt is made to distinguish the regular hydro...
