Environmental Effects of Dredging. Chronic Sublethal Sediment Bioassays for the Regulatory Evaluation of Marine and Estuarine Dredged Material: Proceedings of a Workshop.

Abstract

This note summarizes the proceedings of a workshop held April 3-5,1990, at the US Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station, Vicksburg, MS. The purpose of the workshop was to solicit input from technical experts regarding techniques for evaluating the chronic sublethal effects of sediments on aquatic biota. This input will be used to help direct subsequent research and development by the US Army Corps of Engineers. -BKA
