To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Simultaneously, a collection of basic information which is fundamental to describing the Harbor should be garnered by coordinated research and a rigorous monitoring effort. The monitoring is most important to ensure that the abatement efforts are effective. This information should be useful to developing a model of Boston Harbor processes. Predictive models are useful to regulatory agencies in estimating the potential effects of alternative actions on the Harbor. Models can be used to test the ...outcomes of different management strategies with the best available knowledge. This research effort should be long-term, gradually encompassing other needs and questions. For example, how long do different pollutants stay in Boston Harbor sediments, how do they affect animal life, and what environmental factors affect the fate and removal of pollutants? A summary of the pressing scientific needs is given below. The result of such a plan would be an increasingly refined understanding of how Boston Harbor works.
