AB  - The Nanfei River is by many measures the most heavily polluted tributary to Lake 
      Chaohu. In this study, the temporal occurrence and sources of four classes of 
      persistent organic pollutants (POPs), including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons 
      (PAHs), organochlorine pesticides (OCPs), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), 
      and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), in suspended particulate matter (SPM) from 
      the river mouth were investigated monthly during 2014. Results show that 
      concentrations of all four POPs in SPM were higher than those in the sediment of 
      Lake Chaohu. PBDEs (26.7 ng g(-1) dry weight (dw)) were originated mainly from 
      commercial deca-BDE mixtures. PCB concentrations (1.336 ng g(-1) dw) were lower 
      than those of sediments in many other water bodies worldwide. PAHs (2597 ng g(-1) 
      dw) and OCPs (57.38 ng g(-1) dw) were the most common POPs. PAHs mainly had high 
      molecular weights and originated from pyrolytic sources, with a small proportion 
      of petrogenic origin. The predominant OCPs were DDTs, heptachlorepoxides, 
      dieldrin, hexachlorocyclohexanes, hexachlorobenzene, and chlordanes. Most OCPs 
      originated from historical use, except lindane. Generally, of all the POPs 
      studied, those of primary ecological concern should be acenaphthene, fluorene, 
      DDTs, and chlordanes. Higher concentrations of POPs were detected during winter 
      and spring than in summer and autumn, probably because of the high river flow 
      during the rainy season. The high concentration of POPs in the riverine SPM and 
      the fractionation of POPs in the water and SPM of the river should be a focal 
      point in the future study of Lake Chaohu.
