ADDENDUM REPORT Continuation of the Sooke Basin Creosote Evaluation Study (Goyette and Brooks, 1998) Year Four - Day 1360 & Day 1540
D. Goyette,K. M. Brooks +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors conducted a 10-day amphibian bioassay to determine the PAH levels of the amphibians in the waters of the South China Sea and found that they were significantly more sensitive to pretreatment than those of other amphibians.

Acid Volatile Sulfides, Equilibrium Partitioning, and Hazardous Waste Site Sediments
TL;DR: AVS and EqP are tools in the toolbox, which can serve three main functions: screening, prioritization, and assisting in explaining observed effects, but should not be used in isolation for decision making.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occurrence, Origin, Ecological and Human Health Risks of Organochlorine Pesticides in Soils from Selected Urban, Suburban and Rural Storm Water Reservoirs
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the occurrence characteristics to trace the origin and associated risks of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in soils from urban, suburban, and rural stormwater reservoirs.

Mercury Hazards to Fish, Wildlife, and Invertebrates: A Synoptic Review
TL;DR: A review of the available literature on the ecological and toxicological aspects of mercury (Hg) in the environment, with special reference to fish and wildlife resources, is reviewed and summarized in this paper.

Selenium Hazards to Fish, Wildlife, and Invertebrates: A Synoptic Review
TL;DR: A review of the environmental and toxicological aspects of selenium in the environment is presented in this paper, including its chemistry, background residues in biological and other materials, and toxic, sub-lethal, and latent effects (including the effects of Se deficiency).
Journal ArticleDOI
Current approaches to developing sediment quality criteria
TL;DR: It is concluded that, for chemical-by-chemical criteria, the equilibrium partitioning method shows promise; for criteria that are also applicable to chemical mixtures, the apparent effects threshold/sediment quality triad approaches appear to be most appropriate.
