Halsall,Roland Kallenborn,Roland Kallenborn,Khaled Abass,Khaled Abass,Gerhard Lammel,Gerhard Lammel,John Munthe,Matthew MacLeod,Jon Øyvind Odland,Janet Pawlak,Arja Rautio,Lars-Otto Reiersen,Martin Schlabach,Irene Stemmler,Simon Wilson,Henry Wöhrnschimmel +22 more
TL;DR: An overview of studies on PCBs in the Arctic is presented and the findings from ArcRisk are combined to provide a case study on the behaviour and impact of PCBs over time inThe Arctic.

TL;DR: In this article, the results from an evaluation of all the coastal air data is presented, which shows that the background concentration of mercury in Mediterranean coastal air is lower than earlier anticipated, and also showed that the mercury concentration occasionally can be very high in some areas due to local anthropogenic emissions.

Modeling the Atmospheric Chemistry of Mercury
Karin Pleijel,John Munthe +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a model describing the aqueous chemistry and mass transfer processes of atmospheric mercury (Hg) has been used for analyzing the influence of various chemical and physical parameters on the Hg concentrations in the range 2 to 5 and 5 to 10 ng L 1 for dissolved and total Hg.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distribution of TPM in Northern Europe.
TL;DR: Total particulate mercury (TPM) in air has been measured during five 2-week campaigns at five measurement sites in Northern Europe and the result constitutes a unique TPM data set from this region.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sampling and determination of gaseous and particulate mercury in the atmosphere using gold-coated denuders
TL;DR: In this article, gold-coated denuders were used to separate gas phase and particulate phase Hg in air samples and the concentration of particulate Hg was found to be within the range of 0.11 to 0.57 ng m−3, which corresponds to 2.8 to 16.9% of the total airborne Hg.
