Descrição: Findings show that Newfoundland, the easternmost point in North America, sustained the greatest annual fallout of alpha-hexachlorocyclohexane, a pesticide constituent emanating from Asia. This data indicate that the use of the chemical in the 1970s and 1980s sent polluted clouds across the Pacific and into Canada's high latitudes, persisting even 2 decades after most Asian nations phased it out.
