Abstract The Bohai Sea is one of the most polluted marine areas in China with polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) due to its unique hydrological and geographical …

Marine sediments serve as crucial reservoirs for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs),
and their PAH signatures offer valuable historical pollution records. This article provides a …

The spatial distribution and depth profile of dissolved polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(PAHs) were investigated in the western Taiwan Strait (TWS) and northeastern South China …

Zooplankton play an important role in energy transfer in the marine food web and form the
dietary basis for the size of important fish stocks and the maintenance of their resources …

To investigate the air‐sea gas exchange and its potential influence on the regional fate of
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the East China Marginal Seas (ECMS), which …

The pollution of dissolved and particulate polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in
coastal waters has been increasing in recent decades. However, limited research has been …

PAHs enter the ocean via surface runoff and atmospheric transport pathways, and the
distribution of PAHs is highly variable in coastal seas due to the influence of direct human …

As a systematic research at basin scale, this study investigated the spatial distribution,
source apportionment and ecological risks of eighteen polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons …

The distribution of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the ocean is affected by the
sorption-desorption process of sediment particles. This process is determined by the …

The present study collected and analyzed the published data in recent decade on the
distribution and influencing factors of six typical persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in the …
