Sources and distribution of organic matter and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in sediments of the southwestern Portuguese shelf
Total organic carbon (Corg), total nitrogen (Ntot), Corg/Ntot, δ13Corg, δ15N, calcium carbonate (CaCO3), and grain size were analyzed in 70 surface samples and 19 short cores from the southwestern Portuguese shelf. Perylene and USEPA-16 PAHs were quantified in a subset of these samples. The findings...

Perylene combined with δ13Corg was used to identify the main PAH sources in these environments.

A significant correlation between perylene and USEPA-16 PAHs indicates natural and anthropogenic inputs from the Tagus. This multiproxy approach-combining USEPA-16ΣPAHs, perylene, and δ13Corg-offers insights for assessing environmental risks and guiding marine environmental management according to the MSFD.The authors would like to thank for financial support: FEAMP through the CSS project (MAR-01.04.02-FEAMP-0013). The TAGUSGAS project (PTDC/CTA-GEO/31885/2017) and the CSS project financed the 2021 sampling campaign. The MINEPLAT project (ALT20-03-0145-FEDER-000013) supported part of the 2021 sampling campaign and the 2019 sampling campaign, respectively. Special thanks are due to the crews of the research vessel Noruega and the Portuguese Navy research vessel NRP Almirante Gago Coutinho and to all who participated in these two sampling campaigns. The authors thank the technical staff of the IPMA laboratories involved in sampling and sample preparation for the several analyses. A special thanks to Warley Soares, Mafalda Freitas and André Santana from IPMA for doing the grain-size, Corg and Ntot determinations. We also thank to Piet van Gaever from NIOZ for undertaking the 210Pb and 226Ra measurements. The IPMA Sedimentological Laboratory was financed by project PINFRA/22157/2016-EMSO-PT.
