Abstract
Various form of human activity such as maritime transports, industrial activities, busy traffic, intensive farming and animal husbandry can have negative impact on natural marine environment. Baltic Sea catchment area is characterized by the high river water flux and wastewater treatment plants discharges. Additionally, the limited shallow connection to the North Sea results in little water exchange and residence time of approximately 35 years. Thus, some hazardous substances, which accumulate in the marine can be toxic to organisms and they can cause a health risk for people. Some of them may be hazardous due to their persistence and bio-accumulating properties.
