Dredge Contaminant Seabed Data in UK Waters 1998 - 2022

Dredge sediment contaminant concentrations, including trace metals, organotoxins, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), organochlorine pesticides (OCs), and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) data collated under the Action Level Review Project by Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (Cefas) within UK waters from 1998 to 2022. The purpose of this study was to determine potential impacts of proposed action levels in the assessment of dredged sediment for licensing of disposal at sea.
