%X Sediments collected from Yangtze River were separated into five size fractions ( > 200 microm, 200 - 125 microm, 125 - 63 microm, 63 - 25 microm, <25 microm) by wet sieving. The concentrations of 16 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) listed as U.S. EPA priority pollutants were determined in the fractionated sediments. Sigma PAHs concentrations ranged from 26.1 to 7135.9 ng/g and varied largely among the different size fractions. The highest Sigma PAHs concentration (7135.9 ng/g) was associated with the largest size fraction ( > 200 microm) while the fine silt fraction (63 - 25 microm) contained the lowest Sigma PAHs concentration, 26.1 ng/g. Although the PAHs concentrations difference among different fractions was great, the composition of PAHs in the five size fractions showed similar pattern dominated by PAHs with three or more rings. Sediment particles less than 25 microm contributed 75% of the Sigma PAHs, while comprising 38.6% of bulk sediment dry weight. A significant positive correlation (p < 0.01) between PAHs and total organic carbon (TOC) existing for all size fractions demonstrated that TOC was important for PAHs distribution in sediments. Additionally, sediment organic matter type and structure also played an important role in PAHs distribution in different grain size fractions.
