---DATA SET OVERVIEW:
This dataset contains marine bioaccumulation chemistry from the Beaufort Sea. 
Data are for concentrations of metals (Ag, As, Ba, Be, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg,
Mn, Ni, Pb, Sb, Se, Tl, V, Zn), total polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), 
and individual organic compounds in benthic biota (clams and amphipods) and 
fish. These data were collected from 17 August 1999 through 07 August 2002.

All metal and hydrocarbon concentrations are dry weight values. Concentrations 
of Ag, As, Ba, Be, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sb, Se, Tl, V and Zn are 
µg/g (ppm). Total PAH (TotalPAH) and all hydrocarbon components are ppb (ng/g) 
concentrations. The percent water content of the samples appears under the 
column title (percentH20).

ppm = parts per million
ppb = parts per billion
