  • 199 Levels in the Water Column Over Weeks Or Months. These Techniques
    levels in the water column over weeks or months. These techniques were not reviewed for this report. In-situ exposure techniques in use for trace metals in natural waters include diffusion gradient thin-film gels (DGT), hollow fiber permeation liquid membranes (HFPLM), and Donnan membrane technique (DMT) (Sigg et al. 2006). Solid phase microextraction samplers, which consist of glass fiber coated with poly(dimethylsiloxane) in copper casings were moored at coastal sites along southern California for 2-3 months at a time to measure p,p'-DDE in seawater (Zeng et al. 2005). Another option are passive samplers called semi-permeable membrane devices (SPMD)21. SPMDs are porous plastic tubes containing a fatty material that mimics fish membrane lipids. As water passes through the membrane material, hydrophobic compounds are retained as they would be in fish fatty tissues. These sampling devices are usually deployed in an aquatic environment for three to four weeks and target hydrophobic contaminants such as organopesticides, PAHs, and PCBs. PISCO maintains a number of instrument moorings around Park islands, which might be utilized for such a project. 12. Utilize NOAA's SAMSAP data to map current patterns of fishing effort outside the MPAs (H). With the help of Sanctuary staff, publically available SAMSAP data should be examined to see how spatial patterns of fishing effort in Park waters have changed since the creation of the MPAs. 13. Prioritize the synthesis of time series data from the Park's monitoring programs to discover the impacts of fishing on Park biota (H). Several years of data from the intertidal and kelp forest monitoring programs, much of which precedes the establishment of the SMRs, have been presented in annual reports (yearly snapshots), but most of the data has not been synthesized (e.g., years compared, trends examined).
