This, the second workshop sponsored by the Division of Biomedical and Environmental Research on the subject, was organized to provide a forum for communication and coordination among the research scientist who have ongoing projects and to reveal needs and ideas for additional research. This workshop, in addition to land and freshwater research which was the focus of the first workshop, included marine sciences. A plenary session included a brief description by each scientist of the objectives and results of his research project to date. The remainder of the workshop consisted of group discussions in the areas of plant uptake, transport and diffusion in aquatic systems, soil and sediments, and ecosystems and food chains. This report is a description of the workshop and its results as observed by DBER staff and summarized in detail by the panel chairman.
