The paper reports data on concentrations of organic compounds (organic carbon, lipids; aliphatic hydrocarbons, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) in snow, ice, and sub-ice waters from the mouth of the Severnaya Dvina River in March 2005-2007 and the Kandalaksha Gulf (Chupa Bay) in March 2004. It was established that organic compounds are accumulated in snow and the upper ice layer near Archangelsk city. Distribution of molecular markers indicates that pollutions were mainly caused by local fallouts. In the Chupa Bay organic compounds are concentrated in the lower ice layer; it is typical for Arctic snow-ice cover. High contents of organic compounds in the snow-ice cover of the White Sea are caused by pollution of air and water during the winter season.

Data are presented on concentration of hydrocarbons (HC) relative to concentrations of suspended matter, lipids, organic carbon, and chlorophyll a in surface waters and snow-ice cover of the East Antarctic coastal areas. It was shown that growth of concentrations of aliphatic HC (AHC) to 30 µg/l in surface waters takes place in frontal zones and under young ice formation. AHC concentration in snow increases with growth of aerosol concentration in the atmosphere. In the lower part of ice, at the boundary with seawater, despite low temperatures, autochthonous processes may provide high AHC concentrations (up to 289 µg/l). Within the snow-ice cover on fast ice, concentration co-variations of all the compounds considered take place.

This research has been carried out in the Nha Trang Bay (Southern Vietnam, South China Sea) at a section from the estuary of the Cai River to the marine part of the bay, as well as in the area of coral reefs. River- and sea waters, suspended matter, and bottom sediments are studies. Data on dissolved organic carbon and total nitrogen in water are obtained. Organic carbon concentration is estimated in suspended matter; organic carbon and molecular and group compositions of n-alkanes are determined in bottom sediments. Molecular and group compositions of n-alkanes in bottom sediments of the landfill made it possible to identify three types of organic matter (OM): marine, mixed, and mainly of terrigenous origin. All these types of OM are closely related to specificity of sedimentation and hydrodynamics of waters in this area.
