Abstract

Highlights: [•] We report new baseline sediment contaminant concentrations in Sydney Harbour. [•] Current contaminant concentrations were much lower than in previous studies. [•] Measured natural sediment recovery rates were comparable to predicted levels. [•] Natural sediment recovery was not impeded by remediation of the Sydney Tar Ponds. [•] Enhanced recovery also occurred during large scale dredging operations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
