Emerging and Legacy Contaminants in POCIS, SPMDs, and the Largescale Sucker (Catostomus macrocheilus) in the Lower Columbia River – USGS ConHab Project

Creator:

Nilsen, Elena B., Alvarez, David, Madsen, James, Zaugg, Steven D., Perkins, Stephanie, Cranor, Walter, and Morace, Jennifer

Abstract:

An interdisciplinary study, USGS Columbia River Contaminants and Habitat Characterization (ConHab) project, is underway to investigate transport pathways, chemical fate and effects of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) in aquatic media and the foodweb in the lower Columbia River. Polar organic chemical integrative samplers (POCIS) and...
