Abstract—
The study analyzes polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) isolated from bottom sediments of the Barents and Norwegian seas (2019–2021 cruises of the R/V Akademik Mstislav Keldysh). Elevated PAH concentrations (up to 16 900 ng/g) are recorded in the coastal region of the Svalbard archipelago, and low ones, in the Greenland Basin and the eponymous ridge (up to 80 ng/g), as well as on the continental slope of the Barents Sea (up to 240 ng/g on average). Among cata-condensed PAHs, 2–3 ring polyarenes are the most common: naphthalene, 1- and 2-methylnaphthalenes, and phenanthrene, while among peri-condensed PAHs, 4–6 ring polyarenes are the most typical: fluoranthene, pyrene, and benz(a)anthracene. Anthropogenic sources in the bottom sediments of the study area are of subordinate importance compared to their natural input from the sedimentary stratum with fluid fluxes and erosion.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
