Abstract
Determination of aromatic hydrocarbons in coastal waters, using solvent extraction and fluorescence emission analysis, shows wide distribution of fuel oils with only a small contribution from crude oil. Oil concentrations are' reported as equivalent amounts of m-terphenyl (T) or pyrene (P). Observed concentrations in Port Phillip Bay are generally 02-03 Mg l-1 (T) and 01-0 2 jug U1 (P), with higher values in Corio Bay and the Yarra River estuary.
