  2. 16. Organohalogen contaminants in Greenland shark (Somniosus microcephalus)

    Author : Anna Strid; Åke Bergman; Maria Athanasiadou; Shinsuke Tanabe; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; persistent organic pollutants; sub-Arctic; Iceland; shark; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi; miljökemi; Environmental Chemistry;

    Abstract : The remote sub-Arctic/Arctic environment has due to human activities become a sink for organohalogen contaminants (OHCs). These OHC include traditional contaminants such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), DDTs and technical mixtures of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), all included in the Stockholm Convention list of persistent organic pollutants (POPs).

    Abstract : The Jameson Land Basin, located in central East Greenland, initiated in Devonian time with the collapse of the over-thickened Caledonian Orogen. The basin developed during different phases of rifting from the late Paleozoic to the Mesozoic and has accumulated between 16-18 km of sediments. READ MORE
