Polychlorinated Biphenyls in Lake Michigan Tributaries
Journal of Great Lakes Research(1990)
Abstract
PCB concentrations were measured in 14 major tributaries to Lake Michigan on samples collected in 1980–83. Mean total PCB concentrations ranged from 7 to 103 ng/L and were related to evidence of river or sediment contamination. Aroclor 1242/1248-like mixtures were dominant. Association of PCBs with suspended particulate matter averaged 53 to 83% and was influenced by suspended particulate matter concentration and PCB mixture composition.
