Source regions of some persistent organic pollutants measured in the atmosphere at Birkenes, Norway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A key feature of POPs (Persistent Organic Pollutants) is their potential for long-range atmospheric transport. In order to better understand and predict atmospheric source-receptor relationships of POPs, we have modified an existing Lagrangian ...

Effect of Anabaena sp. PCC7120 on the Tolerance of Rice ( Oryza sativa L. cv Maratelli) Seedlings Against Lindane

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 7, Page 2873-2885, 30 April 2026.
ABSTRACT Lindane (γ‐hexachlorocyclohexane, γ‐HCH) is a broad‐spectrum pesticide widely used since the 1950s until its inclusion in the Stockholm Convention list of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) in 2009, together with other HCH isomers. The high persistence and mismanagement of the toxic wastes generated during its synthesis have led to serious ...

Global gridded emission inventories of α‐hexachlorocyclohexane [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2000
Emission factors of α‐hexachlorocyclohexane, the major isomer of technical hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) for spray events and tilling events, are distributed on a 1°×1° longitude and latitude grid system. Estimations of global gridded α‐HCH emissions in 1980 and 1990 due to 15 consecutive years of application of technical HCH are presented.
