Water quality monitoring in the Pamlico/Albemarle peninsula

"Between January 1983 and February 1984, eleven sites in the Pamlico-Albemarle peninsula area were sampled for a wide range of water quality parameters. Primary emphasis of the study was placed upon whether or not mercury exists in the ambient water, sediment, and fish tissue present in the area of interest. A secondary purpose was to assess ambient water quality by examination of macroinvertebrate and phytoplankton communities."--p.iv. 1984 Funding: Coastal Energy Impact Program grant.; grant number: NA-83-AA-D-CZ-028; Funding: Office of Coastal Zone Management, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.; NOS (National Ocean Service) Library Public Domain 1936
