Narragansett
Bay Project 1985-1989
This study was supported by the Narragansett Bay Project and the Rhode Island
Sea Grant Program, and was a broad survey of inorganic and organic contaminants
and nutrients in Narragansett Bay sediments. The purpose of the project
was to provide preliminary determinations relating historical land use to
contaminants identified in modern Bay sediments. Detailed discussion
of the results of the surface sediment component of this study can be found
in King, et al., 1995.
