• Current state of knowledge on biological effects from contaminants on arctic wildlife and fish (2019, background): “previous AMAP assessment report included several studies on the association between POP body burdens and circulating concentrations of thyroid hormones in marine mammals (Letcher et al., 2010).”
• The complex interaction between marine debris and toxic chemicals in the ocean. (2012, background): “…toxic chemicals as well as the plastic consumed by the fi sh. Seals have been found with PCB concentrations in their fat tissues as high as 1370 ppb. 111 A range of top-level predator marine mammals have been found with PCB concentrations between 1 ppm (1000 ppb) in seals and nearly 1000 ppm in…”
