Título: | Spatial and temporal trends of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in wild mussels from the Cantabrian coast (N Spain) after the Prestige oil spill |
Autor: | Soriano, José Antonio; Viñas, Lucía CSIC ORCID ; Franco, María Ángeles; González, Juan José CSIC; Bayona Termens, Josep María CSIC ORCID | Fecha de publicación: | 27-jun-2007 | Editor: | Royal Society of Chemistry (UK) | Citación: | Journal of Environmental Monitoring 9(9): 1018-1023 (2007) | Resumen: | Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) levels were determined in tissues of wild mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis) collected at 17 stations along the Cantabrian coast (N Spain), from Navia (Asturias) to Fuenterrabía (Basque Country), in order to assess the extent of the environmental impact caused by the Prestige oil spill (November 13, 2002). Six sampling campaigns were carried out in April, June and November in 2003 and 2004. The comparison of PAH data with those obtained earlier in 2000 showed a widespread pyrolytic and petrogenic contamination and allowed an estimation, for the first time, of the background pollution in the region and identification of the chronic hotspots. The spatial distribution found in the first samples after the oil spill revealed the eastern area as the most affected due to the continuous arrival of fuel slicks since early summer 2003. Several stations in this area showed increased total PAH concentrations of up to 15 times the pre-spill levels, which did not recover until April 2004, more than one year after the accident. Molecular parameters within the aliphatic and aromatic fractions were determined to assess the presence of Prestige oil in these samples. | Descripción: | 6 pages, 5 figures.-- PMID: 17726564 [PubMed].-- Printed version published Sep, 2007. | Versión del editor: | http://dx.doi.org/10.1039/B704989G | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/29844 | DOI: | 10.1039/B704989G | ISSN: | 1464-0325 | E-ISSN: | 1464-0333 |
