Incidence of adverse biological effects within ranges of chemical concentrations in marine and estuarine sediments
TL;DR: In this article, matching biological and chemical data were compiled from numerous modeling, laboratory, and field studies performed in marine and estuarine sediments, and two guideline values (an effects range low and an effects range median) were determined for nine trace metals, total PCBs, two pesticides, 13 polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and three classes of PAHs.

Source Apportionment of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in the Urban Atmosphere: A Comparison of Three Methods
Randolph K. Larsen,Joel E. Baker +1 more
TL;DR: The sources of PAHs to ambient air in Baltimore, MD, were determined by using three source apportionment methods, principal component analysis with multiple linear regression, UNMIX, and positive matrix factorization.

Origin of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Coastal Marine Sediments: Case Studies in Cotonou (Benin) and Aquitaine (France) Areas
TL;DR: In this article, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were identified and quantified in recent sediments of the Cotonou coastal zones (Benin) in the total concentration range 25-1450 ng g−1, while the Aquitaine sediment samples (France) exhibited total PAH concentrations in the range 4-855 ng−1.
