Use of organochlorines -- Movement of organochlorines in the environment. -- Occurrence of residues: records and surveys -- Occurrence of residues: patterns of distribution -- Pesticide kinetics: gain and loss in the ecosystem -- Pesticide kinetics: gain and loss in the individual -- Pesticide kinetics: Gain and loss in the individual -- Pesticide effects: mortality -- Pesticide effects: population changes -- Pesticide effects: physiology and behavior -- Discussion. Each year for nearly 20 years, thousands of pounds of persistent organochlorine pesticides have been applied to outdoor areas in many countries. These compounds may last for a very long time in the environment, and be carried by wind, water, and animals to places far distant from where they are used. As a result, most living organisms now contain organochlorine residues. This paper constitutes a selective review of the literature concerning the occurrence, distribution, and effects of organochlorines in the environment. |
