Abstract The distribution of current‐use pesticides (CUPs) in seawater and their trophodynamics were investigated in 3 Canadian Arctic marine food chains. The greatest ranges of dissolved‐phase concentrations in seawater for each CUP were endosulfan sulfate (less than method detection limit (MDL) to...
