TI  - Climate change influence on the levels and trends of persistent organic 
      pollutants (POPs) and chemicals of emerging Arctic concern (CEACs) in the Arctic 
      physical environment - a review.

AB  - Climate change brings about significant changes in the physical environment in 
      the Arctic. Increasing temperatures, sea ice retreat, slumping permafrost, 
      changing sea ice regimes, glacial loss and changes in precipitation patterns can 
      all affect how contaminants distribute within the Arctic environment and 
      subsequently impact the Arctic ecosystems. In this review, we summarized observed 
      evidence of the influence of climate change on contaminant circulation and 
      transport among various Arctic environment media, including air, ice, snow, 
      permafrost, fresh water and the marine environment. We have also drawn on 
      parallel examples observed in Antarctica and the Tibetan Plateau, to broaden the 
      discussion on how climate change may influence contaminant fate in similar 
      cold-climate ecosystems. Significant knowledge gaps on indirect effects of 
      climate change on contaminants in the Arctic environment, including those of 
      extreme weather events, increase in forests fires, and enhanced human activities 
      leading to new local contaminant emissions, have been identified. Enhanced 
      mobilization of contaminants to marine and freshwater ecosystems has been 
      observed as a result of climate change, but better linkages need to be made 
      between these observed effects with subsequent exposure and accumulation of 
      contaminants in biota. Emerging issues include those of Arctic contamination by 
      microplastics and higher molecular weight halogenated natural products (hHNPs) 
      and the implications of such contamination in a changing Arctic environment is 
      explored.
