황해 수층과 퇴적물중의 PCB, 유기염소계농약, PAH

Abstract

The co-operative joint research between Korea and China in the Yellow sea had been conducted during the winter in 2008 and the summer in 2009. For the case of summer cruise of 2009, surface seawaters and sediments had been collected from 21 stations by Korea for analyzing polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) of surface seawater and sediments. Relatively low concentrations of PCBs, PAHs and OCPs were determined. At stations which were located at the center of the Yellow Sea, the heavier congeners (including CB-118, CB-166 and CB-180) were observed as important congeners of PCBs. This study provides a useful data for interpretation of those organic pollutants covering the entire Yellow Sea.
