The temporal trend of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in coastal waters with highly
dynamic sources and sinks is largely unknown, especially for polar regions. Here, we show …

The atmosphere–land–ocean dynamics of semivolatile organic compounds in polar regions
is poorly understood, also for the abundant and ubiquitous polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons …

As much as 400 Tg of carbon from airborne semivolatile aromatic hydrocarbons is deposited
to the oceans every year, the largest identified source of anthropogenic organic carbon to …

This study provides the first data on the distribution, sources, and transport dynamics of
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Fildes Peninsula, Antarctica via summertime …

Antarctica, protected by its strong polar vortex and sheer distance from anthropogenic
activity, was always thought of as pristine. However, as more data on the occurrence of …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are persistent organic pollutants, which can be
transferred to a long distance and tend to accumulation in marine sediment. However, PAHs …

Aim: The goal of this study was to identify functional targets to detect polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbon (PAH)‐degrading bacterial populations in cold marine ecosystems. Methods …

A diesel spill occurring at Carlini Station (King George Island (Isla 25 de Mayo), South
Shetland Islands) in 2009 started the study of the fate of the hydrocarbons and their effect on …

Background: The bacterial community responses to oil spill events are key elements to
predict the fate of hydrocarbon pollution in receiving aquatic environments. In polar systems …

Bacterial cultures obtained through selective enrichment of beach sand collected 60 days
and one year after treatment of sites in a pilot oil spill trial conducted at Airport Beach …
