Background and Aims In the global distribution of
persistent organic pollutants (POPs) forests play a
key role due to the forest canopy efect. In this study,
mountain beech forests were selected to identify the
level and distribution of selected POPs.
Methods Organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) and
polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) were ana lyzed by capillary gas chromatography with an elec tron capture detector (GC–ECD). Analysis of poly chlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) was performed by gas
chromatography with a mass spectrometry detector
(GC–MS). The polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(PAHs) were analyzed by liquid chromatography with
a diode array detector (HPLC–DAD).
Results The total ∑20OCP concentrations in the
soil from mountain beech forests at a depth of 0 –
40 cm ranged from 24.46 µg kg−1 to 331.11 µg kg−1,
and at a depth of 40 – 80 cm from 15.80 µg kg−1 to
247.12 µg kg−1. The mass concentration for ∑6PCB
ranges from 9.21 to 95.28 µg kg−1 in the surf...ace soil
layer and from 8.07 to 66.56 µg kg−1 in the soil sub layer. The total concentration of ∑7PBDE congeners
measured in soil samples from mountain beech forests
across Europe was from 1.38 to 29.68 µg kg−1 in the
surface soil layer and from 1.01 to 53.31 µg kg−1 in
the soil sublayer. The total concentration of ∑16PAH
varied from 271.52 to 1154.52 µg kg−1 in the surface
soil layer and from 318.95 to 1052.54 µg kg−1 in the
soil sublayer.
Conclusion The results of this study can serve as
an important basis for international, national, and
regional measures of environmental protection of
beech forests from POPs pollution
