In-flame: INputs of FLuorinated compounds from Arctic MElting - RiS ID: 11598
The acceleration of glacier melting and permafrost thawing due to the global warming taking place on Earth might be a new involuntary source of legacy anthropogenic compounds’ redistribution. Many organic pollutants derived from human activities are now globally widespread in different environmental...
