AB  - In this study, we monitored the newly added Stockholm Convention persistent 
      organic pollutants (POPs) HCHs, PeCBz, endosulfans, chlordecone, PBDEs, PBBs and 
      PFCs in industrial, urban, and agricultural soils in South Korea, in order to 
      evaluate their distributions and potential sources. These POPs were widely 
      distributed throughout South Korea, and their concentrations and distributions 
      were affected by land use, reflecting their sources. The overall concentrations 
      of HCHs, PeCBz, endosulfans, PBDEs, and PFCs in soils were in the range of ND 
      (non-detectable)-0.358 ng/g (average+/-standard deviation: 0.060+/-0.080 ng/g), 
      ND-0.531 ng/g (0.083+/-0.133 ng/g), 0.058-8.42 ng/g (2.19+/-2.43 ng/g), 0.004-4.78 
      ng/g (0.68+/-1.06 ng/g), and ND-1.62 ng/g (0.50+/-0.46 ng/g), respectively. 
      Agricultural soils showed the highest concentration of endosulfan, which was the 
      most recently used pesticide monitored in this study. On the other hand, 
      industrial soils contained the highest concentrations of PeCBz, PBDEs, and PFCs, 
      which were mainly introduced to environment via the industrial activities.
