Some aspects of mercury speciation in the atmosphere
Języki publikacji
Abstrakty
Different forms of mercury have different physical and chemical properities and thus behave different in their biogeochemical cycles. For example, while Hg(II) is water-soluble and may be removed from the atmosphere by wet and dry deposition close to combustion sources, the combination of high vapour pressure and low water-solubility facilitate the long-range transport of Hg° in the atmosphere. Elementary mercury is eventually removed from the atmosphere by dry deposition onto surfaces and by wet deposition after oxidation to watersoluble, divalent mercury. In this article, we reviewed findings on mercury speciation in the air, including both transformation and transport different forms of mercury. We also reviewed distribution forms of mercury in the air and their fluxes between atmosphere and surfaces.
