-►23330. CARSONS, JOANNE N and JOHN O. GOULDEN (Arch 
Oceanogr. Inst., Phi la.. Pa. 19103, USA.) The effects of chlorine 
pollution on growth and respiration rates of larval lobsters 
(Homarus amerlcanus). BIOL RES 11(12): 1433-1438. 1985. The 
length, dry weight and standard respiration rate of larval lobsters 
(H. americanus) were measured following 20 days immersion in 
coastal waters surrounding a power plant. Significantly lower 
increases in dry weight (P < . 05) and significant reductions in stan- 
dard respiration rates (P<. 01) were measured in exposed 
organisms when compared to control organisms. Water samples 
taken from the immersion site contained high concentrations of 
free Cl.
