Data on alkane-naphthene hydrocarbon and organic carbon distributions in the upper layer of bottom sediments from the Kandalaksha Bay of the White Sea are presented. Alkane-naphthene hydrocarbon contents vary from 43.8 to 305.7 µg/g (0.88-60% of organic carbon). Oil pollution of the surface layer of...
