Pollution 2020 - Cetacean contaminant mapping tool
Ailsa Hall, Caroline Cummings and Joanna Kershaw
A mapping tool to display published data on the concentration of persistent organic pollutants and mercury in cetacean tissues, on a global scale, has been created. The purpose is to allow researchers to quickly view, and explore visually, trends in the concentrations of commonly monitored contaminants over time. The tool will be made available online through the IWC website.
