The cycling of toxic organic substances in the Great Lakes ecosystem : second annual progress report to the Office of Marine Pollution Assessment, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

The primary goal of this proposed program is to produce a clearer understanding of the cycling of hydrophobic toxic organic compounds in the Great Lakes environment. Our ultimate objective is to be able to predict locations, concentrations, decay rates, residence times and eventual sinks of these materials under conditions of long-term, low level leakage into the environment or a major loading from some point source
