Abstract
⺠Organochlorine compounds were measured in sediment from the Eastern Aegean. ⺠p,pâ²-DDE was the most abundant pesticide in the sampling area. ⺠OCPs and PCBs were present in noticeably higher levels at Izmir inner Bay. ⺠The OCP contamination was mainly from the aged and weathered agricultural soils. ⺠DDTs and heptachlor would be more concerned for the ecotoxicological risk.
