Atmospheric mercury in an eastern Chinese metropolis (Jinan).

Urban emissions are a major contributor to atmospheric Hg budgets. Continuous measurements of total gaseous mercury (TGM) and particulate-bound mercury (PHg) in PM were conducted from October 2015 to July 2016 in a metropolis, Jinan, in eastern China. Average TGM and PHg concentrations were 4.

Insights on Chemistry of Mercury Species in Clouds over Northern China: Complexation and Adsorption.

Cloud effects on heterogeneous reactions of atmospheric mercury (Hg) are poorly understood due to limited knowledge of cloudwater Hg chemistry. Here we quantified Hg species in cloudwater at the summit of Mt. Tai in northern China.

Distribution and sources of particulate mercury and other trace elements in PM and PM atop Mount Tai, China.

The concentrations of particulate mercury (PHg) and other trace elements in PM and PM in the atmosphere were measured at the summit of Mount Tai during the time period of 15 June - 11 August 2015. The average PHg concentrations were 83.33 ± 119.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) associated with PM within boundary layer: Cloud/fog and regional transport.

A study of PM-associated PAHs analysis at Mount Lushan (1165m) was conducted to investigate the distributions of PAHs in PM and influences of cloud/fog. The main purpose was to quantify the main emission sources of PAHs and estimate regional transport effects within the boundary layer. Mount Lushan is located between the boundary layer and troposphere, which is an ideal site for atmosphere transport investigation.

Characteristics and potential sources of atmospheric particulate mercury in Jinan, China.

Measurements of atmospheric particulate mercury (PHg) were conducted at a suburban site in Jinan, China from June 2014 to December 2015. The average PHg concentration was 508.5±402.
