The effect of seasonal formation/melting process of pack ice on the PCB level of sea water at Gerlache Inlet and Wood Bay (Ross Sea, Antarctica) was investigated during four Italian expeditions, i.e. !988-89, 1990-91, 1991-92 and 1993-94. Surface sea water samples from Gerlache Inlet and Wood Bay be...
