Volatile organic compounds (VOC) have been determined in Narragansett Bay,
Rhode Island, water samples as part of an investigation into the sources,
fates, and transport of volatile organic compounds in estuarine and coastal
seawater. This report tabulates the concentrations of a wide range of VOC
along a transect 1n Narragansett Bay for two summer and two winter sampling
cruises.
