Figure 2

PCB levels in the blubber of Cuvier’s beaked whale in the three age classes: juvenile (light green), subadult (medium green) and adult (dark green). (a) Boxplots showing ΣPCB concentrations (mg/kg l.w.) in the blubber of juvenile (n = 4), subadult (n = 8) and adult males (n = 6). (b) The mean values of each individual PCB congener profiles for all 18 PCB congeners, in the age classes. Error bars represent standard errors (SE).
