Abstract
Biosignificant polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and diobenzofurans (PCDFs) were found in estuarine sediments. When these isomer distributions are displayed on a log scale, comparisons of various estuarine sediments reveal significant differences. Principal components analyses display clusters which suggest relationships with different source materials. PCB contaminated sediments have elevated levels of PCDFs.
