Spatial Trends in TCDD/TCDF Concentrations in Sediment and Bottom Fish Collected in Lake Roosevelt (Columbia River).

Entry ID: BESTsed13

[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: In June 1990, as part of Ecology's investigation of contaminants in
Lake Roosevelt, a series of sediment and bottom fish samples were
collected from Lake Roosevelt and vicinity for analysis of PCDDs and
PCDFs (Johnson et al. 1991a). The objective of the survey was to
evaluate the transport and distribution of these compounds throughout
the lake. The sediments and bottom fish collected during this ...
