BHCs mean concentrations were<0.69-<1.94 ng/L. In other samples,oil,BHCs,DDTs,and PCBs were all relatively higher in patella than that in sediments and seaweed. PAHs could not be detected in all samples. By comparison,the concentrations level of organic contaminants in the Great Wall bay was low yet.展开更多

Totally 11 genera 21 speciesHave been identified in the sediments, of which the most abundant is loxoreticulatumFallax, the second abundant are xestoleberis keguelenensis, xestoleberis spp., Semicytherura spp., australicythere polylyca, etc. Most species of ostracodes are thoseKnown in antarctic area. Base on the study of ostracodes from the core ng93-1, theirSedimentary environment may be of shore-shallow sea.展开更多
