Based upon the results of TBT analysis on sediment samples collected around Keelung Harbor, the sources of TBT input were pretty much revealed. TBT content in BaChiMen Port sediment was as high as 363 ng/g, and that were 282 and 254 ng/g for sediment collected form cooling water outfall of XieHe Power Plant and HoPing Island entrance, respectively. Combining results from previous researches it was concluded that the TBT accumulation in sediment is still occurring. Which may suggest that TBT input to the study area from ships have never been stopped in the past decade.
