The aim of this project is to examine changes in the marine benthic ecosystem in the vicinity of Casey station following clean-up of the abandoned Thala Valley waste disposal ('tip') site in 2003-04. The chemical parameters are: (1) 1 M hydrochloric acid-extractable elements (mainly metals) by ICP-AES (inductively coupled plasma - atomic emission spectrometry) (2) water-extractable nutrients by FIA (flow injection analysis) (3) petroleum hydrocarbon fractions (TPH: total petroleum hydrocarbons) and persistent organic pollutants (POPs) - polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) - by GC-FID, GC-ECD and GC-MS (gas chromatography - flame ionization detector / electron capture detector / mass spectrometry), respectively (4) Loss on Ignition at 550 degrees Celsius (LOI; as a proxy for Total Organic Matter) and Dry Matter Fraction (DMF) by gravimetric analysis.

Notes

Purpose
The TV-LTM 2014-15 field season was the last in a series of field campaigns where data and samples were collected to evaluate the effects on the nearby marine environment of remediating the abandoned waste disposal site at Thala Valley in 2003-04. The data will be compared to measurements/samples obtained before, during and several times after (less than 10 yr: short- to mid-term monitoring) clean-up of the tip site.

Data time period: 2015-01-14 to 2015-02-19
