## Abstract The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Environmental Monitoring and Assessment ProgramβEstuaries and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Bioeffects Surveys provide large data sets with which to test proposed relationships between sediment chemistry and toxicity.
## Abstract Matching, marine sediment chemistry, and toxicity data(__n__ = 1,513), compiled from three studies conducted in the United States, were analyzed to determine both the frequency of acute toxicity to amphipods and average percentage survival in laboratory bioassays within ranges in toxica
