Abstract
⺠Levels of PCBs HCB en dieldrin decrease in Antarctic pelagic top-predators. ⺠Levels of PCBs and HCB do not decrease in Antarctic benthic species. ⺠Fluxes between Antarctic pelagic and benthic food webs are associated with sea-ice dynamics. ⺠Climate change may affect contaminant fluxes in Antarctica by impacting sea-ice dynamics. ⺠Antarctic biota are still final receptors of globally released organic contaminants.
