Abstract

Some anthropogenic persistent organic pollutants (POP), such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, chlorinated pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls, dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans in air, soils and needles from sampling site located in Czech boundary high-mountain ecosystems were identified. The high mountain spruce forest ecosystem was heavily polluted by POPs, especially Krusne hory, Luzicke hory and Krkonose mountains. The measured concentration have reached the values, which should be monitored in order to forecast the future development of the whole high mountains ecosystem and biological effects of the POPs.
