Monitoring of long-range transported air pollutants, Annual report for 1999. NILU OR
Air and precipitation chemistry is determined through various monitoring programmes at several sites located in the rural areas of Norway. This report describes the results for 1999, and these are compared to the previous years.

This report presents the database for the second phase of the ECE ICP material programme. Besides presenting the available data for the three exposure years 1995/96, 1996/97 and 1997/98, the report presents the spread in the yearly mean values for the exposure sites. To show the reductions in the air pollutions observed during the ruling time of the project, scatterplots for SO2, NO2 and O3 for the two years 1987/88 and 1997/98 are presented. They show that the reduction for SO2 at the sites during the ten years period has been 75% in average, NO2 the reduction has been 25% and for O3 no detectable change has been observed.

The POPCYCLING-Baltic model, typical multi-media mass balance model, divides the environment in 85 boxes or compartments, which are considered well-mixed and homogeneous, both with respect to the environmental characteristics and chemical contamination. These environmental phases are then linked by a variety of intercompartmental transfer processes.

The main purpose of mission 16 was to introduce a new technique for analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOC) in air samples, and to do on the job training of the staff at Centre for Environmental Hazards Mitigation (CEHM) at the Cairo University, Giza. Due to major changes in staff at the laboratory during the visit, it was not possible to complete the training program according to the original plan. The equipment for sampling and analysis has been checqued and tested and further needs of equipment has been evaluated.

Assessment of emissions/ discharges of mercury reaching the Arctic environment. NILU OR
Our knowledge of mercury fluxes on a global scale is still incomplete. The above presented estimates for Europe and North America seem to contribute less about 25 % to the global anthropogenic emissions of the element to the atmosphere. The majority of the remaining emissions originate from combustion of fossil fuels, particularly in the Asian countries including China, India, and South and North Korea. Even less and very controversial information is available on emissions of mercury from natural sources, including volatilization of the element from terrestrial and aquatic surfaces. In general, it is assumed that natural emissions of the element are about 3000 t/year, thus contributing more 60 % to the total global emissions of mercury. However, much work needs to be done in order to verify the above estimate.
