The Canadian network for sampling organic compounds in precipitation = Réseau canadien d'échantillonnage des composés organiques des précipitations / P. Brooksbank.: En36-503/129-PDF

"Precipitation samples were collected at 12 locations across Canada and analyzed for the levels of several organochlorine pesticides and PCBs. The samples were collected using an automatic wet only collector. A number of problems were identified with the sampler and sampling technique, so that the data obtained have only a qualitative value. However, the data probably represent minimum values and do indicate the atmospheric transport of these compounds to remote areas. Recommendations for the development of an improved sampler are given"--Abstract, p. v.
