Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons / Government of Canada, Environment Canada, Health Canada.: En40-215/42E-PDF

"Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are emitted into the Canadian environment from both natural and anthropogenic sources. Forest fires, which release approximately 2000 tonnes of PAHs per year, are the single most important natural source of PAHs in Canada. However, since releases from that source are generally widely separated in time and space across the country, they do not result in continuous exposure in any specific area"--Synopsis.
