Atmospheric deposition in the Great Lakes / W.M.J. Strachan.: En13-5/90-31E-PDF
"The Swedish National Environmental Protection Board and the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe hosted a workshop in Stockholm (March 12-14, 1990) entitled "Long-Range Transport of Organic Pollutants". The particular purpose of this meeting was to (a) provide a forum for exchange of information on the topic among researchers and policy makers in Europe, and (b) acquaint Scandinavian and other European researchers with existing and potential activities concerning atmospheric transport and deposition of persistent toxic organics, especially the organochlorines. A number of North American investigators in the field were invited and their papers, including this one, will appear in a published proceedings of the workshop. This particular paper was intended to describe the development of the concern over atmospheric deposition in the Great Lakes and to describe the investigations in that area and what progress has been achieved to date. Here and in the workshop, the stress has been on the global nature of the transport and dispersal of the persistent organochlorine group of chemicals"--Executive summary.
