摘要: Abstract The preliminary research on Hg snow chemistry was conducted in the industrially-impacted region of southern Baltic Sea during winter campaigns 2008 and 2009. Mercury content urban samples quantitatively determined through use an atomic absorption technique. average total concentration value shallow cover from urbanized coastal zone calculated to be 8.6 ng L−1. A strong relationship between anthropogenic emission factors (contribution local regional coal combustion processes) low temperature identified for all examined episodes. highest observed advection, which indicated that local/regional predominantly affected deposition. Other environmental variables (meteorological chemical) were also investigated establish most important atmospheric processes sources assess changes season.
