 Based on the comprehensive assessment of the MMO-monitored PCB congeners and their environmental behavior, the following recommendations are put forth to enhance marine management strategies: Based on the comprehensive assessment of the MMO-monitored PCB congeners and their environmental behavior, the following recommendations are put forth to enhance marine management strategies:
  
-Targeted Monitoring and Research:+    Targeted Monitoring and Research:
  
-Continue and enhance congener-specific monitoring, particularly for CB118, given its persistent exceedance of Environmental Assessment Criteria (EACs) and high toxicity. This targeted approach is crucial for accurately assessing and mitigating ecological risk.[[#ref10|10]], [[#ref19|19]], [[#ref36|36]]+        Continue and enhance congener-specific monitoring, particularly for CB118, given its persistent exceedance of Environmental Assessment Criteria (EACs) and high toxicity. This targeted approach is crucial for accurately assessing and mitigating ecological risk.[[#ref10|10]], [[#ref19|19]], [[#ref36|36]]
  
-Prioritize monitoring efforts in identified "hotspots," such as the English Channel, Gulf of Cadiz, and areas adjacent to industrial or urban centers, including old landfill sites, where PCB concentrations remain elevated.[[#ref19|19]], [[#ref27|27]], [[#ref28|28]], [[#ref30|30]], [[#ref36|36]], [[#ref37|37]], [[#ref61|61]], [[#ref70|70]]+        Prioritize monitoring efforts in identified "hotspots," such as the English Channel, Gulf of Cadiz, and areas adjacent to industrial or urban centers, including old landfill sites, where PCB concentrations remain elevated.[[#ref19|19]], [[#ref27|27]], [[#ref28|28]], [[#ref30|30]], [[#ref36|36]], [[#ref37|37]], [[#ref61|61]], [[#ref70|70]]
  
-Expand biomonitoring to encompass a wider range of trophic levels, with a particular focus on long-lived top predators like marine mammals and large fish, which accumulate the highest concentrations of PCBs due to biomagnification.[[#ref1|1]], [[#ref23|23]], [[#ref30|30]], [[#ref31|31]], [[#ref34|34]], [[#ref39|39]], [[#ref40|40]], [[#ref46|46]], [[#ref49|49]] The utility of specific biomonitors, such as fish parasites, which can accumulate higher PCB levels than their hosts, should also be explored.[[#ref34|34]], [[#ref39|39]]+        Expand biomonitoring to encompass a wider range of trophic levels, with a particular focus on long-lived top predators like marine mammals and large fish, which accumulate the highest concentrations of PCBs due to biomagnification.[[#ref1|1]], [[#ref23|23]], [[#ref30|30]], [[#ref31|31]], [[#ref34|34]], [[#ref39|39]], [[#ref40|40]], [[#ref46|46]], [[#ref49|49]] The utility of specific biomonitors, such as fish parasites, which can accumulate higher PCB levels than their hosts, should also be explored.[[#ref34|34]], [[#ref39|39]]
  
-Conduct further research into the long-term bioavailability of PCBs from aged marine sediments and assess the potential for their remobilization due to environmental disturbances (e.g., climate change impacts on ocean currents, increased storm activity) or human activities like dredging.[[#ref5|5]], [[#ref14|14]], [[#ref30|30]], [[#ref32|32]], [[#ref35|35]], [[#ref40|40]], [[#ref71|71]] This understanding is vital for predicting future exposure risks.+        Conduct further research into the long-term bioavailability of PCBs from aged marine sediments and assess the potential for their remobilization due to environmental disturbances (e.g., climate change impacts on ocean currents, increased storm activity) or human activities like dredging.[[#ref5|5]], [[#ref14|14]], [[#ref30|30]], [[#ref32|32]], [[#ref35|35]], [[#ref40|40]], [[#ref71|71]] This understanding is vital for predicting future exposure risks.
  
-Investigate the combined toxicological effects of PCB mixtures and other co-contaminants (e.g., heavy metals, polybrominated diphenyl ethers) in marine organisms, as real-world exposure scenarios involve complex chemical cocktails.[[#ref14|14]], [[#ref30|30]], [[#ref41|41]]+        Investigate the combined toxicological effects of PCB mixtures and other co-contaminants (e.g., heavy metals, polybrominated diphenyl ethers) in marine organisms, as real-world exposure scenarios involve complex chemical cocktails.[[#ref14|14]], [[#ref30|30]], [[#ref41|41]]
  
-Policy and Management Considerations:+    Policy and Management Considerations:
