Abstract
⺠POP levels in Great skua eggs are among the highest in North Atlantic seabirds. ⺠Legacy POPs decreased from 1980 to 2008 but PBDEs increased. ⺠Decreases in legacy POPs were greatest for least persistent compounds. ⺠Levels in eggs varied between nests according to diets of individual females. ⺠Levels of POPs were influenced slightly by changes in diet between decades.
