Abstract | Several international commissions have recently called for effective short-term biological response measurements which can adequately detect the effects of environmental concentrations of contaminants. The report describes efforts to develop a direct comparison of the effects of Black Rock Harbor dredged material on the bioenergetics of juvenile Nephtys incisa exposed in the laboratory and of individuals obtained in the field from a controlled disposal of Black Rock Harbor material. In addition the effects of exposure to suspended BRH material on the bioenergetics of the mysid, Mysiodopsis bahia were also determined. |
