Abstract

Evaluates some of the critical components of laboratory experiments that need to be considered to obtain accurate sediment toxicity assessments. The report describes the formulation and evaluation of a reference sediment, it examines the tolerances of common testing species to sediment characteristics, it evaluates copper sulfate as a reference toxicant by determining the relative sensitivities of freshwater testing organisms, and evaluates potential sublethal endpoints for sediment potency.
