| Abstract | This report presents a preliminary interpretation of the analyses of hydrocarbon material in sediments of the Delaware Estuary as determined by solvent extraction, column chromatography, and gas-liquid chromatography. The specific focus has been on the saturated group of compounds isolated by silica gel chromatography. Approximately 35 stations (out of a total of 100 sampled localities) from Philadelphia to the bay mouth have been analyzed, and several stations have been reoccupied and reanalyzed following the oil spill associated with the Corinthos tanker explosion on January 31, 1975. Many of these "post-Corinthos" samples are discussed in the appendix to this report. | en_US |
