AB  - Good quality data apt for an assessment of temporal trends of polychlorinated 
      dibenzo-p-dioxins and furans (PCDDs/Fs) in soils are difficult to obtain since 
      there is a general lack of information on their residues in soils. Variability of 
      soil profiles, non-homogeneity of samples, and often also inconsistency of 
      applied sampling procedures further complicate this problem. To assess spatial 
      and temporal trends of contamination, three soil sampling campaigns have been 
      performed over the period of 12 years at the mountain forest sites in the Czech 
      Republic. Relation between the air, needle and soil contaminations was addressed 
      in addition to time-related variability of soil. It has been confirmed that soil 
      is a good matrix for evaluation of spatial distribution of persistent organic 
      pollutants (POPs) but difficult for establishment of temporal trends. A slow rate 
      of the soil-forming processes and their site-specificity was generally the major 
      source of uncertainties.
