Environmental contaminants in fish : spatial and temporal trends of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans, Peace, Athabasca and Slave river basins, 1992 to 1994 / by D. C. G. Muir and G....: R71-49/3-129E

This report succeeds an earlier report.... A significant finding of the earlier work was the high concentration of these contaminants in fish flesh near the pulp mill at Hinton and the role that suspended sediment transport may have in the availability and movements of contaminants in the food chain. Follow-up collection and analysis of fish (mountain whitefish, burbot) and sediment samples throughout the Study area was undertaken to describe possible spatial and temporal trends.--Study perspective
