摘要
A review is presented of the database generated to the present concerning trace metals, organochlorines, and petroleum-derived hydrocarbons in water, sediments and biota of Port Phillip Bay. This Bay has been extensively studied over two decades, and has been shown to be significantly contaminated by all three classes of pollutants. Historical changes in the extent of contamination are discussed, and the possible toxic impacts of sedimentary hydrocarbons in particular are assessed by comparison to data produced elsewhere. Recommendations are provided for further investigations.
