The organic composition of particulate matter collected at Terra Nova Bay during the 1991 Italian Expedition to Antarctica was determined by HRGC-MS. Several biogenic and anthropogenic organic compounds were identified in the liquid chromatographic fractions into which the extract was separated. In addition to n-paraffins, PAH and phtalate esters, alkanoic acid methyl esters, alkyl phospates and arylsulphonamides were identified as major components in the particulate organic matter. The results obtained are highly indicative of the decisive role played by marine aerosols in determining the levels of organic compounds present in suspended particles present at Terra Nova Bay.
