Dataset of Contamination (2009–2022) Legacy Contaminants (PCB and DDT) in Zooplankton of Lake Maggiore (CIPAIS, International Commission for the Protection of Italian-Swiss Waters)

In this paper, we describe a 13-year (2009–2022) dataset of legacy POP concentrations (DDT<sub>tot</sub> and sumPCB<sub>14</sub> from 2016 isomers and congeners concentrations are also reported) in the planktonic crustaceans of Lake Maggiore (≥450 µm size fraction). The data...

description In this paper, we describe a 13-year (2009–2022) dataset of legacy POP concentrations (DDT<sub>tot</sub> and sumPCB<sub>14</sub> from 2016 isomers and congeners concentrations are also reported) in the planktonic crustaceans of Lake Maggiore (≥450 µm size fraction). The data were collected in the framework of a monitoring program finalized to assess the presence of pollutants in the lake biota, including zooplankton organisms directly preyed by fish. The data report both concentration of DDT<sub>tot</sub> and sumPCB<sub>14</sub> in the zooplankton and the standing stock density and biomass of the population in each season. The dataset allows for detecting changes in the concentration over the long term and within a year, thus providing evidence for the seasonal and the plurennial variations in the presence of these pollutants in the lake. They also provide a basis for further studies aimed at modeling paths and the fate of persistent organic pollutants, for which the amount of toxicants stocked in the zooplankton compartment linked to fish is a crucial estimate.
