TI  - Young of the year bluefish (Pomatomus saltatrix) as a bioindicator of estuarine 
      health: Establishing a new baseline for persistent organic pollutants after 
      Hurricane Sandy for selected estuaries in New Jersey and New York.

AB  - Atlantic coastal bays of the US are essential habitat for young of year bluefish 
      (Pomatomus saltatrix). Their residence in these estuaries during critical life 
      stages, high lipid content, and piscivory make bluefish an ideal bioindicator 
      species for evaluating estuarine health. Individual whole fish from four 
      estuaries impacted by Hurricane Sandy were collected in August 2013, analyzed for 
      a suite of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) including polychlorinated 
      biphenyls, polybrominated diphenyl ethers and organochlorine pesticides and 
      evaluated using health metrics. Concentrations in whole bluefish differed by 
      estuary; however, concentrations for many POPs decreased or were similar to those 
      observed prior to the hurricane. Prevalence of the ectoparasitic gill isopod 
      (Lironeca ovalis) varied by estuary and no relationships between contaminants and 
      lesions were observed. Bluefish should be considered for monitoring programs and, 
      if sampled frequently, could be an effective bioindicator of incremental and 
      episodic changes in contaminants within aquatic food webs.
