Benthic sediment data from eleven stations in the Mobile-Tensaw River Delta, Alabama on 1981-06-17 (NCEI Accession 0118497)

Data provided by  National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

Benthic sediment samples were collected from eleven stations in the Mobile-Tensaw River Delta on 17 June 1981. Samples were analyzed for particle size distribution characteristics. At least eight were near the wastewater discharge pipes of industrial sites, and at least two were not near potential sources of water pollution.
