Metals and Organic Compounds in Fish and Sediments from the Missouri and Lower Kansas Rivers in Kansas in 1991.

摘要

In 1991, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Environmental Contaminants Specialists from Region 6 conducted contaminants sampling of the Missouri River and its major tributaries in the region. Upstream sampling efforts focused on known problems, but the effort in Kansas was considered more for determination of background contaminant concerns. For the Kansas portion of the study, common carp composites and sediment composites were collected on the Missouri River and the lower Kansas River. The report presents the data from those collections.
