An assessment of chemical contaminants, toxicity and benthic infauna in sediments from the St. Croix East End Marine Park (STXEEMP), US Virgin Islands

This project resulted in the collection and analysis of sediments for chemical contaminants and bioeffects within the St. Croix East End Marine Park or STXEEMP. Working with partners from the USVI Department of Planning and Natural Resources, seven strata were established, and a total of 38 sediment samples were collected from stratified random sites and targeted sites.
