Abstract
Scientists have found concentrations of DDT in most specimens, and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) in practically all specimens of plants and animals they collected on extensive cruises throughout the Atlantic Ocean.The cruises, by vessels of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, were part of the continuing United States program for the International Decade of Ocean Exploration. Scientists aboard the vessels were conducting projects designed to obtain baseline data for the study of marine pollution as part of the Environmental Quality Program of the IDOE.
