Chlorinated paraffins (CPs) are ubiquitous in the environment due to their large-scale
usage, persistence, and long-range atmospheric transport. The oceans are a critical …

Organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) are persistent organic pollutants (POPs) widely used in
agriculture and industry, causing serious health and ecological consequences upon …

The production and use of intentionally-produced polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in
China have a short history compared with countries of North America and Europe, where …

High emissions of synthetic compounds are damaging the marine environment and
threatening human health. This study represents the first extensive and comprehensive …

As new persistent organic pollutants, short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) have
recently received particular attention. However, knowledge on their bioaccumulation and …

Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) is well known for its harmful effects and has been
banned around the world. However, DDT is still frequently detected in natural environments …

Aquatic particles and organic carbon (OC) regulate the occurrence and transport of
hydrophobic organic contaminants such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in …

Although polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and organochlorine pesticides (OCPs)
have been recorded worldwide, information on their presence in the Eastern Indian Ocean …

In this study, we aimed to quantify the transport and fate of PAHs in different environmental
phases (air, seawater, soil, sediment and fish), verify application of the Level III fugacity …
