AB  - Short-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) are candidate persistent organic 
      pollutants (POPs) that are under review by the Stockholm Convention. China is 
      currently the largest producer and consumer of chlorinated paraffins (CPs). To 
      study the environmental behavior and fate of SCCPs in the soils of urban and 
      suburban regions, the SCCP concentrations in 88 topsoils and 15 soil columns from 
      land of different use types (e.g., woodland, vegetable field, paddy field and 
      greenbelt) from Guangzhou and Chengdu have been determined. The SCCP 
      concentrations in topsoils from Guangzhou (range: 1.45-25.5ngg(-1) dry weight 
      (dw), average: 10.3ngg(-1) dw) were much higher than those from Chengdu (range: 
      0.218-3.26ngg(-1) dw, average: 1.43ngg(-1) dw). When compared to previously 
      reported SCCP levels for topsoils from other areas, the SCCP concentrations 
      measured in the present work were quite low. Much higher SCCP concentrations were 
      observed in the greenbelt topsoils from Chengdu relative to the values measured 
      from woodlands and vegetable and paddy fields. The composition profiles suggest 
      that C10Cl6-10 and C11-13Cl6-8 were the major groups of SCCPs in topsoils from 
      the woodlands and vegetable and paddy fields in Guangzhou and Chengdu. Vertical 
      variations of the SCCP concentrations in the soil columns suggest that less 
      chlorinated SCCPs (Cl5-6-SCCPs) are more capable of migrating to the deeper-layer 
      soils than more chlorinated ones (Cl9-10-SCCPs). The SCCP concentrations 
      displayed little dependence on organic matter (OM) for most topsoils (p>0.05), 
      indicating that OM is not the controlling factor in the distribution of SCCPs in 
      the soils. CAPSULE: This study analyzed the occurrence, homologue patterns and 
      vertical migration of SCCPs in the topsoils of two Chinese cities with different 
      industrial structures and climate conditions.
