Description A network for the study of long-term trends of the continental background in Africa and the intercontinental background of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) as resulting from long-range transport is designed. The results of a pilot phase sampling programme in 2008 and climatological information from the period 1961-2007 were used to apply objective criteria for the selection of stations for the monitoring network. Out of 26 original stations, six to nine stations would cover satisfyingly large and medium to densely populated regions of north-eastern, western and eastern Africa and neighbouring seas.
