(Table 1) Concentrations of organic pollutants in soil samples from Adélie penguin (Pygoscelis adeliae) colonies and reference sites, Hop Island, Antarctica

Although long-range atmospheric transport has been described as the predominant mechanism for exposing polar regions to persistent organic pollutants (POPs), recent studies have suggested that bird activity can also contribute substantially to contaminant levels in some environments. However, becaus...
