Emerging contaminants and legacy pollutants exhibit contrasting exposure and hazard patterns in sediments and suspended particulate matter from an Antarctic coastal ecosystem.

Antarctic coastal systems are changing under the combined influence of climate warming and increasing human activity, but the interaction between contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) and legacy contaminants (LCs) remains poorly resolved. Here, we investigated their occurrence, sources, partitioning, and ecological r...
