Interactive Data Map on Persistent Organic Pollutants Concentrations

Thursday, March 30th, 2023

We are excited to share a new interactive data map of persistent organic pollutants (POP) concentrations in Antarctica and the Southern Ocean. The map was created using data from journals and other publications.

The map is a product of the collaboration between the Action Group on Input Pathways of persistent organic pollutants to AntarCTica (ImPACT) and SCAR EG-ABI.
Support was provided by the Southern Ocean Persistent Organic Pollutants Program (SOPOPP) at Griffith University and the Integrated Digital East Antarctic program at the Australian Antarctic Division.

The full database can be downloaded from Zenodo.
