Abstract:
The data file contains measured environmental concentrations of organic micropollutants in European streams and additional hydrological parameters (stream order, urban discharge fraction) of the investigated sites.
A total of 445 surface water samples were collected during various sampling campaigns between 2016 and 2019. Chemical target screening of 610 compounds by liquid chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) resulted in 504 detected compounds. The measured environmental concentrations of the detected compounds ranged from 1 ng/L to 74 µg/L (3-cyclohexyl-1,1-dimethylurea). Detection frequencies ranged from one site (0.2 %) to 339 sites (76 %).
