AB  - High emissions of synthetic compounds are damaging the marine environment and 
      threatening human health. This study represents the first extensive and 
      comprehensive analysis of three typical persistent organic pollutants (POPs), 
      i.e., organochlorine pesticides (n = 228), perfluoroalkyl substances (n = 202), 
      and short-chain chlorinated paraffins (n = 162), using a highly resolved spatial 
      dataset. The results revealed the complex distribution of POPs in the Eastern 
      China Marginal Seas (ECMSs). POPs in the surface sediments of the ECMSs showed 
      spatial heterogeneity, with high levels observed mainly in areas with 
      fine-grained sediments (e.g., the Yellow River and Changjiang River estuaries and 
      the central south Yellow Sea). Strong positive correlations were identified 
      between POP concentration and sediment grain size/components/longitude/latitude 
      in the ECMSs, suggesting that POP distribution was significantly influenced by 
      river input and regional hydrodynamics. The annual deposition fluxes of POPs in 
      the ECMSs were also calculated and high values were recorded in the Yellow River 
      Estuary and East China Sea. Human-induced changes in the catchments could affect 
      the fate of POPs in the ECMSs and other river-dominated marginal seas worldwide. 
      Our findings highlight concerns regarding local aquaculture and provide a basis 
      for government decision-making. We also suggest the need for increased attention 
      to be paid to the effects of marine organic pollution on aquaculture on a global 
      scale.
