• Description:
  This report summarizes results of the National Status and Trends (NS&T) Program from the Gulf of Maine Region. It characterizes the system, its drainage basin, and inputs that influence the concentrations of contaminants and biological responses to those substances. These results are shown in relation to those obtained at all other NS&T sites around the United States. This summary is intended to provide information to assist local and state resource managers evaluating toxic contaminant conditions in their areas and placing those conditions in perspective to those throughout the Gulf and across the nation.
