  • Tracking semi-volatile organic pollutants in remote lake systems

    Creator:
    Usenko, Sascha
    Abstract:
    SOCs volatility and persistence properties cause many SOCs to become ubiquitous in the environment as well as accumulate in areas with lower temperatures such as polar or orographic regions. Many anthropogenic SOCs pose a serious risk to human and ecosystem health because of their persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic properties in...

  • Trans-Pacific and regional atmospheric transport of anthropogenic semivolatile organic compounds in the western U.S.

    Creator:
    Primbs, Toby
    Abstract:
    The atmospheric transport of anthropogenic semivolatile organic compounds (SOCs) from Asian sources to the Western U.S. was investigated. In addition, the SOC extraction method was optimized. Hansen solubility parameter plots were used to aid in the pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) solvent selection of air sampling media in order to minimize...
