Research Abstract |
A high resolution ocean compartment of the Finely-Advanced Transbounboundary Environmental model (FATE) was developed. FATE is a global multi-compartment model capable of predicting dynamics and biogeochemical cycles in and between the atmosphere, ocean, soil, vegetation, and cryosphere. Using improved model, we investigated the fate of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the global oceans.
