Chlorinated hydrocarbons in the surface microlayer and subsurface water of the Niagara River, 1985/86 / by R.J. Maguire and R.J. Tkacz.: En13-5/88-94E-PDF

"The surface microlayer of the Niagara River at Niagara-on-the-Lake was sampled 34 times in 1985-86, and was shown to contain PCBs, chlorobenzenes and chlorinated pesticides at concentrations generally up to 40 times greater than concentrations in subsurface water. Organisms which spend part or all of their lives at the air-water interface are thus likely to be at increased risk relative to subsurface water exposure"--Abstract.
