A holistic approach is key to protect water quality and monitor, assess and manage chemical pollution of European surface waters
Leo Posthuma,John Munthe,Jos van Gils,Rolf Altenburger,Christin Müller,Jaroslav Slobodnik,Werner Brack +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, three key concepts to address the challenges of chemical pollution of surface waters are developed and tested in the context of the European Union Water Framework Directive, based on principles such as the DPSIR-causal framework (Drivers, Pressure, Status, Impact and Response).
Journal ArticleDOI
Airborne mercury species at the Råö background monitoring site in Sweden: distribution of mercury as an effect of long-range transport
TL;DR: In this article, a back-trajectory analysis to study the origin of air masses reaching the Rao site was performed, showing that a significant part of the GOM measured at the Rao measurement station has been formed in free tropospheric air.

Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of mercury isotope ratios in samples containing sub-nanogram amounts of mercury using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry
TL;DR: In this article, it was found that the precision in the isotope ratio determination in samples containing less than 300 pg of mercury is limited by the counting statistics and the detection limit was lowered by concentration of mercury vapour on gold traps, and the sensitivity of the instrument was increased 4-6-fold by adding nitrogen or hydrogen to the central gas flow.
Book ChapterDOI
Numerical Modeling of Regional Transport, Chemical Transformations and Deposition Fluxes of Airborne Mercury Species
TL;DR: A review of current knowledge of atmospheric mercury processes and activities in Europe and North America to simulate these processes by means of tropospheric chemistry/transport models for regional-scale applications can be found in this article.
