Concentrations of Benzo(a)pyrene(PAP) were measured in somatic and gonadal tissues of M. edulis in Yaquina Bay, Oregon over several months to determine whether or not changes in levels in these tissues could account for winter-spring fluctuations in BAP concentrations. The period of high January-February concentrations was of special interest.
