Summary

Polychlorinated phenols, guaiacols and catechols have been studied in snow from North Pole, North, Central and South Finland. Only Central and South Finland samples contained known compounds above limit of determination 0.5 ng/1. Airborne chlorophenol pollution appeared to be very much higher in South than in Central Finland.
