  • Abstract
    Historical data on concentrations of PCBs and chlorinated pesticides in U.S. marine and estuarine fish and invertebrates have been collected, archived and analyzed to determine long-term and large-scale geographic trends and to provide a basis for improving monitoring strategies. Data have been acquired from about 20,000 samples of nearly 500 marine species surveyed over the past three decades. The approach developing this data base is described.
