    • NCCOS Assessment: Baseline Chemical Contaminants Data from the Nuuuli Pala Lagoon, American Samoa from 2017-07-11 to 2017-07-14 (NCEI Accession 0208106)

    Metadata Updated: November 1, 2025

    This dataset represents a one-time sediment sampling effort from the Nu’uuli Pala Lagoon, American Samoa. A suite of organic and inorganic parameters were quantified at twelve randomly selected sites and one targeted site in 2017, including: polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), pesticides, human-use pharmaceuticals and personal care products, trace elements, carbon, Clostridium perfringens abundance, and sediment grain size.
