Abstract
Controlled oil exposure study to evaluate the effects of south Louisiana crude oil, via contaminated sediment, on 1-year-old southern flounder (Paralichthys lethostigma) health. Data include results for sediment tPAH, liver tPAH, whole body tPAH, and sediment VOC from southern flounder spawned in December 2016.
Purpose
Controlled oil exposure study to evaluate the effects of south Louisiana crude oil, via contaminated sediment, on fish health.
