This is the major factor driving current research in mercury globally and in environmental regulation, and is the driver for the current UNEP Global Partnership for Mercury Transport and Fate Research (UNEP F&T) initiative. The overall focus of the UNEP F&T report is to assess the relative importance of different processes/mechanisms affecting the transfer of mercury (Hg) from emission sources to aquatic and terrestrial receptors and provide possible source-receptor relationships. This transfer occurs through atmospheric transport, chemical transformations and subsequent deposition, and involves the intermittent recycling between reservoirs that occurs prior to ultimate removal of Hg from the atmosphere. Understanding the sources, the global Hg transport and fate, and the impact of human activity on the biosphere, requires improved knowledge of Hg movement and transformation in the atmosphere. An improved understanding of Hg emission sources, fate and transport is important if there is to be a f | 出版日期 | Book 2009 | 关键词 | China; India; Japan; South Africa; ecosystem; ecosystems; ecotoxicology; emissions; environment; environmenta | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-0-387-93958-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4419-4717-8 | isbn_ebook | 978-0-387-93958-2 | copyright | Springer-Verlag US 2009 |
