Organic Contaminants in Canadian Archipelago: Central and Eastern, 2013

Air and water samples were collected from on board the CCGS Amundsen in the fall of 2013 as a part of ArcticNet and the Northern Contaminants Program (NCP). These samples were collected to determine the occurrence and levels of legacy pesticides and new and emerging priority compounds under the Canadian Chemical Management Plan. Analysis was done by gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer (GC-MSD) and liquid-chromatography mass spec mass spec (LC-MS/MS).
