Contaminant concerns : heavy metals and the Bay of Fundy / [written and produced by J.A. Percy].: En13-8/25-2004E-PDF

"The Gulf of Maine Council on the Marine Environment in its ActionPlan for 2001-2006 identified mercury, nitrogen and sewage as the priority contaminantsin the region requiring research and remedial action. The Bay of Fundy's rapid tidal circulation ensures that problems of nitrogen enrichment and sewage contamination are largely confined to localized areas. However, heavy metals, particularly mercury, are of concern across much of the region. This Fundy Issue examines the nature, distribution, sources and ecological effects of the heavy metals present in the Bay of Fundy."--p. 1.
