| Popis: | As the initial step in determing the potential role of arsenic and PCBs in the decline of Lake Michigan ciscoes, the objectives were to measure the acute toxicity (96-h LC50) of arsenic and PCBs, singly and in combination, for cisco fry; to determine the additive index for arsenic and PCBs; and to evaluate the adequacy of water quality criteria for these contaminants relative to protecting ciscoes. |
