| chlorinated hydrocarbons in pelagic forage fishes and squid of the southern california bight. | large quantities of ddt and polychlorinated biphenyls (pcbs) have been historically discharged to the southern california bight (scb). while these contaminants have bioaccumulated in sediment-associated fishes, little data exist on concentrations of these compounds in pelagic forage species that are the likely food source for larger predatory mammals and birds. the goal of the present study was to assess the extent and magnitude of ddt and pcb bioaccumulation in the four major pelagic species of ... | 2007 | 17941729 |
