One plastic (polyvinyl chloride) and two aluminum pole systems (with and without pulleys) were used to support mist nets to heights of up to 7.3 m.

Toxicity of sediments and pore water from Brunswick Estuary, Georgia Toxicity of sediments and pore water from Brunswick Estuary, Georgia

Mercury concentrations in sediments collected in 1989 along the tributary near the chlor-alkali plant ranged from 1 to 27 μg/g (dry weight), with the highest concentrations found in surface (0–8 cm) sediments of subtidal zones in the...
