Description:

This report summarizes the results from a project led by NOAA’s National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science (NCCOS) with local partners, and with funding from NOAA’s Coral Reef Conservation Program (CRCP). The objective was to characterize chemical contaminants in the water column around Cocos Island in Cocos Lagoon, Guam, using an array of passive water samplers. The work was a follow-up from a project in 2015 to characterize chemical contaminants in sediments and fish in Cocos Lagoon, in which low levels of contaminants were found in sediments, while fish collected adjacent to Cocos Island contained elevated, in some cases highly elevated levels of PCBs and DDT.
