Halomethoxybenzenes (HMBs) and related halomethoxyphenols are produced naturally in the marine and terrestrial environment and some also have anthropogenic origins. They are relatively volatile and water soluble and undergo atmospheric exchange with water bodies and soil. Here we report air-surface exchange of HMB compounds brominated anisoles and chlorinated dimethoxybenzenes in a Subarctic lake and catchment in Sweden during September 2022.

- Historical pesticide use and trace metal accumulation are affecting the soil, sediment, and water quality in the Sogamoso River basin in Colombia.
- Various pesticides (organochlorines, organophosphates, and azole fungicides) and trace metals (like cadmium, chromium, copper, etc.) were analyzed, revealing widespread contamination in soils, sediments, and water samples.
- The study highlights the urgent need for sustainable agricultural practices to reduce diffuse pollution and protect ecosystem and human health.
