AB  - Monitoring of marine polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs) is crucial, as they are 
      considered persistent organic pollutants (POPs) by the Stockholm Convention. Data 
      on PCNs in marine environment are scarce. In this study, 19 air samples were 
      collected during a cruise in the equatorial Indian Ocean on board the Chinese 
      research vessel Shiyan I from 4/2011 to 5/2011. PCN concentration of these air 
      samples ranged from 0.033 to 2.56pgm(-3), with an average of 0.518pgm(-3), equal 
      to or lower than the values reported for other oceans, seas, and lakes worldwide. 
      Tri- and tetra-CNs were the main homologues in most samples. Reemission of 
      Halowax mixtures and incineration processes were the major sources of atmospheric 
      PCNs in the study area. The PCN-corresponding toxic equivalency values ranged 
      from 0 to 0.190fgm(-3) (average: 0.038fgm(-3)), falling in the low end of global 
      range.
