“…For example, the transport of chlorinated insecticides and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) into the Great Lakes is largely from atmospheric sources (11). More than two dozen agricultural pesticides have been reported in fog and rainfall in the United States (12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20), Canada (21), and Europe (22,23). Examples of these pesticides include carbamate insecticides (carbaryl and carbofuran), organochlorine insecticides (chlordane, DDT, lindane, mirex, and toxaphene), and organophosphorus insecticides (chloropyrifos, diazinon, fonofos, malathion, methidathion, and parathion).…”
