selected to span the range from relatively little to very high 

 hydrocarbon inputs. Field studies will include relating hydro- 

 carbon levels to the following: (1) measurements of primary 

 productivity, chlorophyll, nutrients, salinity, temperature, O2, 

 DOC, and POC, (2) biota census, and (3) levels of hydrocarbons 

 in the atmosphere, surface slicks, and sediment interstital 

 waters. 



Laboratory studies will include: (1) petroleum residue 

 analysis, which will correlate the measurement of petroleum 

 residues in marine organisms with the physiological effects of 

 stresses; (2) fate studies which will determine whether the 

 compound types under investigation are lost to the atmosphere, 

 incorporated into sediment, or if they are metabolized by 

 organisms or go into solution in the fatty tissues of organisms; 

 and (3) other laboratory studies, to include toxicity, animal 

 respiration, and effect of hydrocarbons on time required for 

 thermal death.
