Abstract

âº Firstly evidence of PFASs in the abiotic multi-matrices in Antarctic was provided. âº PFBA and PFOS in Antarctica are affected by the degradation of their precursors. âº PFOA contamination in the Antarctic research station area mainly originate from point sources. âº Results are useful for global transport models of PFASs, especially for PFBA and PFOS.
