@Book{1918541728, author="Zhou, Mo", title="Analysis and tracking chlorinated hydrocarbons: PCB, DDT and HCB in Baltic Sea sediments: distribution, temporal trends, and ecological risks", year="2024", address="Rostock", abstract="This study evaluates chlorinated hydrocarbons (PCBs, DDT, HCB) in Baltic Sea sediments, examining concentration levels, spatial-temporal distribution, and ecological and human health impacts. Analysis of PCB153 shows variation due to industrial activities, particularly in central and southern areas. Long-term monitoring indicates diverse PCB trends and a decline in levels following environmental regulations. Sediments serve as major pollutant sinks, with core samples revealing vertical dispersion patterns. Ecological and health risk assessments indicate minimal risks.", school="Universit{\"a}t Rostock", note="vorgelegt von Mo Zhou", note="GutachterInnen: Detlef Schulz-Bull (Leibniz-Institut f{\"u}r Ostseeforschung Warnem{\"u}nde) ; Joanna Waniek (Leibniz-Institut f{\"u}r Ostseeforschung Warnem{\"u}nde) ; Gesine Witt (HAW Hamburg)", note="Dissertation Universit{\"a}t Rostock 2024", doi="10.18453/rosdok_id00004741", url="https://purl.uni-rostock.de/rosdok/id00004741", url="https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-rosdok_id00004741-2", url="https://d-nb.info/1358477981/34", url="https://doi.org/10.18453/rosdok_id00004741", language="English" }
