Abstract

The Environmental Chemistry and Ecotoxicology Group of Lancaster University, United Kingdom, has completed a large European-scale air sampling campaign within the framework of the project, POPs Fate Modelling. Samplers were deployed at remote, rural and urban locations (71 stations) in 22 countries, two Estonian stations – Lahemaa-background EMEP station and Kohtla-Jarve industrial (oil shale chemistry) region station – among them. This paper presents data on a range of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), organochlorine pesticides (hexachlorocyclobenzene (HCB), hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH), ppDDE, ppDDT), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCN) determined in ambient air samples collected at Estonian stations.
