Beyond legacy pollutants: glacier and snow melt as a relevant source for current-use pesticides in Alpine environments under climate pressure.
Persistent organic pollutants (POPs), such as DDT and PCBs, accumulate in glaciers through long-range atmospheric transport (LRAT) and are re-released during melting. However, the potential for current-use pesticides (CUPs) to exhibit similar behaviour remains less understood. In this study, we employed (i) time-integr...
