Title: Persistent Organic Pollutants in the Great Lakes
Description: "The environment around the Laurentian Great Lakes region has been adversely affected by agricultural runoff, urban waste, industrial discharge, landfill leachate, and atmospheric deposition. Although there have been some improvements over the last 20 years, persistent toxic organic pollutants are now a serious problem. This book brings together what is known about the major classes of these pollutants in the Great Lakes. These reviews make this volume an invaluable resource for all those involved in environmental research, measurements, and decision making."--BOOK JACKET.
