2. Long-term ozone data analysisVjera Butković, Tomislav Cvitaš, Katja Džepina, Nenad Kezele, Leo Klasinc, 2002, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Various approaches to the analysis of 10-year continuous ozone monitoring from the EUROTRAC-TOR network station Puntijarka near Zagreb are reported. The site has a rural character (45.90degrees N; 15.97degrees E, 980 m a.s.l.) and is representative of the lower troposphere of a wider region. Mean hourly ozone volume fractions measured from 1990-1999, autocorrelation plots for all data and for data for summer periods (May-Sep.), box and whiskers representations of diurnal variations during winter (Nov.-March) and summer periods, mean monthly values and 12-month moving averages, and the Fourier transform of the complete set of 94,248 hourly mean ozone volume fractions are discussed. The data show no increase, or possibly a slight decrease, of the ozone volume fraction toward the end of the decade.

5. Extraction of Organochlorine Pesticides from Plastic Pellets and Plastic Type AnalysisMaryline Pflieger, Petra Makorič, Manca Kovač Viršek, Špela Koren, 2017, pregledni znanstveni članek Opis: Plastic resin pellets, categorized as microplastics (≤5 mm in diameter), are small granules that can be unintentionally released to the
environment during manufacturing and transport. Because of their environmental persistence, they are widely distributed in the oceans and
on beaches all over the world. They can act as a vector of potentially toxic organic compounds (e.g., polychlorinated biphenyls) and might
consequently negatively affect marine organisms. Their possible impacts along the food chain are not yet well understood. In order to assess the
hazards associated with the occurrence of plastic pellets in the marine environment, it is necessary to develop methodologies that allow for rapid
determination of associated organic contaminant levels. The present protocol describes the different steps required for sampling resin pellets,
analyzing adsorbed organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) and identifying the plastic type. The focus is on the extraction of OCPs from plastic pellets
by means of a pressurized fluid extractor (PFE) and on the polymer chemical analysis applying Fourier Transform-InfraRed (FT-IR) spectroscopy.
The developed methodology focuses on 11 OCPs and related compounds, including dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) and its two main
metabolites, lindane and two production isomers, as well as the two biologically active isomers of technical endosulfan. This protocol constitutes
a simple and rapid alternative to existing methodology for evaluating the concentration of organic contaminants adsorbed on plastic pieces.
