Concentrations and Loads of Organic Compounds and Trace Elements in Tributaries to Newark and Raritan Bays, New Jersey. Retrieved from https://doi.org/doi:10.7282/T3FT8M2S
DescriptionThis report presents the results of Study I-C of the NJTRWP including the methods, concentrations, and estimates of loads of sediment, carbon, organic compounds, and trace elements from above the HOT in the Raritan, Passaic, Rahway, Elizabeth, and Hackensack Rivers. Loads are presented for seven hydrologic events, for selected years, and for the 25-year average discharge conditions. Preliminary interpretations regarding sources and behaviors of the toxic chemicals of concern and relations between contaminant concentrations and the hydrologic attributes of these tributaries are presented. Various analytical parameters are presentated in detail.
