AB  - Soils are major reservoirs for many persistent organic pollutants (POPs). In this 
      study, "newly" regulated POPs i.e. Sigmaendosulfans (alpha-endosulfan, beta-endosulfan, 
      endosulfan sulfate), pentachlorobenzene (PeCB), and short-chain chlorinated 
      paraffins (SCCPs) were determined in background samples from woodland (WL) and 
      grassland (GL) surface soil, collected along an existing latitudinal UK-Norway 
      transect. Statistical analysis, complemented with plots showing the predicted 
      equilibrium distribution and mobility potential, was then explored to discuss 
      factors controlling their spatial distribution. SCCPs were detected with the 
      highest average concentrations (35 +/- 100 ng/g soil organic matter (SOM)), 
      followed by Sigmaendosulfans (3 +/- 3 ng/g SOM) and PeCB (1 +/- 1 ng/g SOM). PeCB and 
      Sigmaendosulfans share many similarities in their distribution in these background 
      soils as well as with several legacy POPs. A steep decline in concentrations of 
      SCCPs with increasing latitude indicates that their occurrence is dictated by 
      proximity to source regions, while concentrations of Sigmaendosulfans peaked in 
      regions experiencing elevated precipitation rates.
