Organochlorine Compounds in the Environment
Water Science and Technology, 1988 Recent pollution by organochlorine compounds (OCs) has been found to cause ecological damage, initially by causing declining populations. Poisoning of animals having high OC levels was often found to be similar to poisoning of man and animals in dioxin accidents.

Soil-Air exchange controls on background atmospheric concentrations of organochlorine pesticides [PDF]
, 2011 Soils are the major terrestrial reservoir of persistent organic pollutants, and thus net volatilization from soil, when it happens, may exert a control on the atmospheric occurrence and variability of organic pollutants.
