The introduction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) into natural waters is
considered in terms of both point and non-point source discharges to surface, ground and …

The semi-enclosed nature of the Mediterranean Sea, together with its smaller inertia due to
the relative short residence time of its water masses, make it highly reactive to external …

Large volumes of produced water are generated and discharged to the coastal and ocean
waters worldwide from offshore oil and gas production facilities. There is concern that the …

Gas-particle partitioning has an important influence on the fate of atmospheric polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and other semivolatile organic compounds (SOCs). In the …

The concentration, source and ecological risk of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in
the Tiber River and its environmental impact on the Tyrrhenian Sea (Central Mediterranean …

As part of a lipid biogeochemical study, aliphatic and polyaromatic hydrocarbons were
determined in surficial sediments from the Cretan Sea (South Aegean Sea) in the Eastern …

Sedimentary aliphatic (AH) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were studied in
the Changjiang Estuary and the adjacent East China Sea. Total AH ranged from 2.20 to …

The composition, distribution and the sources of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in
the surficial sediments of the Gulf of Trieste were investigated. To document the spatial PAH …

The bacteria involved in the biodegradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in
deep sea subsurface environments are largely unknown. In order to reveal their biodiversity …

The study of fish concentrations and sediment inventories in 19 European high mountain
lakes (40− 67° N) shows that a fraction of organochlorine compounds (OCs), the less volatile …
