    Notes: Abstract Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and DDTs (p,p′-DDE +p,p′-DDT) were quantitated in four species of antarctic fish collected around the Japanese Antarctic Research Station during January to December 1981. PCBs ranged between 0.08 and 0.77 ng/g and DDTs from 0.3 to 1.9 ng/g, wet weight basis in whole body homogenates. InPagothenia borchgrevinki, the largest sample (N=21), both classes of chlorinated hydrocarbons increased linearly with body weight. Analysis of PCB isomers and congeners by mass fragmentography showed greater retention of the more highly chlorinated biphenyls in larger specimens. The bottom dwellingTrematomus bernacchii andT. hansoni revealed greater concentrations of highly chlorinated biphenyls than the surface dwellingP. borchgrevinki. In general, the concentrations of PCBs and DDTs in antarctic fish were very low compared to other open ocean water fish reported in the literature; this agreed with atmospheric and hydrospheric concentrations of PCBs and DDTs in antarctic regions where low levels were reported.

    Notes: Abstract The avoidance behavior of fish is a sensitive indicator to aquatic contaminants such as surfactants, pesticides, and residual chlorine. This paper describes an avoidance test with special reference to monochloramine by medaka (killifish,Oryzias latipes) in a small modular chamber system with a symmetrical parallel-flow. The significant avoidance concentration (P = 0.05) was 5.7 μg/L as combined residual chlorine, which is the lowest among the residual chlorine avoidance concentrations reported in the literature. The avoidance curves of medaka to monochloramine exhibited a similar pattern to those of anionic surfactants.

    Notes: Abstract Concentrations of chlorinated hydrocarbons such as HCH isomers and DDT compounds were determined in air and surface water samples taken from the Western Pacific, Eastern Indian and Antarctic Oceans. The most interesting finding was their presence in measurable concentrations in the Antarctic Ocean. Chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticides are widely distributed in the open ocean environment over both the northern and southern hemispheres, and some characteristic distribution patterns of pesticide species in different oceanic regions were observed both in air and water samples. HCH residues found in the northern hemisphere were much higher in concentration than those in the southern hemisphere. On the other hand, higher concentrations of DDT residues were found in the tropical regions, but their levels were not so different between both the northern and southern hemispheres. HCH isomers found in the northern hemisphere had the following order of concentrations:α-HCH〉γ HCH〉β-HCH, while in the southern hemisphereγ-HCH was apparently dominant. DDT compound compositions were rather uniform in all the oceans surveyed, and more than 50% wasp,p′-DDT. These facts can be explained by the world wide situation regarding pesticide use and the physicochemical properties of the pesticides such as their vapor pressures and water solubilities. In addition, the meridional circulation of the atmosphere, particularly the mass flows of the Hadley and Ferrel cells in the troposphere, also contributes to the atmospheric transport and global distribution of these pesticides.
