---DATA SET OVERVIEW:
This dataset contains marine sediment chemistry from the Beaufort Sea. 
Data are for surface sediment (top 1 cm) metals (Ag, Al, As, Ba, Be, Cd, Co,
Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sb, Tl, V, Zn) and organic substances (total PAH
and individual compounds). Also included are sediment grain size and total
organic carbon data. These data were collected from 30 July 2004 through 
06 August 2006.

All metal and hydrocarbon concentrations are dry weight values. Concentrations 
of Ag, As, Ba, Be, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sb, Tl, V, and Zn are ug/g 
(ppm). Concentrations of Al, Fe, and Total Organic Carbon (TOC) are in percent.
Sand, Silt, Clay and SiltClay (Silt+Clay) sediment fractions are also percent 
values.  Total PAH (TotalPAH) and all hydrocarbon components are ng/g (ppb) 
concentrations.

ppm = parts per million
ppb = parts per billion
