Distribution and fate of tributyltin in surface and deep waters of the northwestern Mediterranean

Article Abstract:

Researchers from the French Institute of Research and Exploitation of the Sea investigated the cause of tributyltin (TBT) contamination of deep sea marine organisms of the Mediterranean Sea. They attributed the circulation of water mass during winter as the main cause of TBT in deep waters.
