• the governing processes, such as biological vectors and oceanic/atmospheric long-range transport;
• bioaccumulation and biomagnification in organisms;
• trophic transfer of contaminants within food webs;
• methodologies for less invasive biological monitoring of contaminants;
• multimedia mass balance modelling of contaminant fate processes.
