Abstract
⺠First known study to examine PPCPs in the South Atlantic Bight. ⺠Examines seasonal and regional trends of PPCP concentrations in a coastal system. ⺠Eleven PPCPs were quantified in WWTP influent, 9 in effluent, and 7 in surface water. ⺠Removal from aqueous phase in wastewater treatment is generally estimated to be > 86%. ⺠Greater detection in winter may have been related to colder temperatures.
