Particulate Organic Carbon
(
POC) content of challenge water during uptake. Ambient describes
natural conditions of water in the Port of Baltimore. Control and treated show levels in test
waters from time-integrated samples collected through the entire uptake. No Arizona Test Dust,
micronized humate and instant
ice tea was added to the uptake water.

Percent UV Transmittance
(
UVT) at 254 nm for challenge water during uptake and discharge.
Ambient describes natural conditions of water in the Port of Baltimore and T0, T1, and T2 for
challenge water are %UVT values from three sample time points (beginning, middle, and end of
uptake). No Arizona Test Dust, micronized humate and instant
ice tea was added to the uptake
water.
