Metadata Updated: December 10, 2025

Data release including concentrations of bioactive organic contaminants in water and sediment and biodegradation rates of select model contaminants in sediment from Congaree National Park during 2013-15. Chemical analyses for targeted organic analytes include, human-use pharmaceuticals, degradates and metabolites and hormones and organic wastewater indicator compounds. Samples were collected between May 2013 and May 2015. Data release is associated with journal Article entitled, "Widespread Occurrence and the Potential for Biodegradation of Bioactive Contaminants in Protected Wilderness at Congaree National Park, USA", Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry. 2017. https://doi.org/10.1002/etc.3873 by Bradley, P.M., W.A.
