In some locations, the decline of certain POPs is slowing, and even reversing direction, potentially in association with climate-related changes. Levels of PCB-52 and PCB-101 in air are now increasing at the coastal site of Stórhöfði, Iceland in close proximity to retreating ice caps, after earlier decreases.
