持久性有机污染物（POPs）可通过大气、海洋及河流的远距离传输（LRT）进入北极地区。与此不同的是，北极关注化学品（CEAC）主要通过本地引入北极地区。无论其来自哪里，这些污染物都会对北极的环境和生物产生负面影响。近几十年来，北极地区经历了前所未有的气候变化。ESE的“北极专刊”将探讨POPs和CEAC的存蓄状态、来源、远距离传输潜力与路径、归趋特点、时空发展趋势和多介质分层过程，以及这些污染物对北极当地环境、生态系统和人类健康的影响。

Environmental pollutants, such as persistent organic pollutants (POPs), can enter the Arctic via long-range transport (LRT) through atmospheric and ocean and river currents. On the other hand, chemicals of emerging Arctic concern (CEAC) are mainly introduced as local contaminants. Regardless of their origin, these contaminants have negative impacts on the health of the environment and the indigenous populations. Furthermore, in recent decades, the Arctic has experienced unprecedented climate changes. In this special issue, we will explore the current status of contaminants, their sources, LRT potentials and pathways, fate, spatial and temporal trends, multimedia partitioning processes, and impacts on the polar environment, ecosystem and humans in the changing Arctic.
