The SUMAC project investigates the atmospheric chemistry of mercury emissions to understand their environmental impact. By integrating laboratory and field data into a global model, it aims to refine predictions of mercury's behavior in the atmosphere and support international efforts to reduce mercury pollution.
Anthropogenic emissions of the toxic heavy metal mercury (Hg) threaten human health and ecosystems.
The elemental form of emitted gaseous mercury, Hg(0), can be transported globally in the atmosphere due to its long lifetime of 4–6 months, but upon oxidation it forms soluble divalent mercury, Hg(II), which is rained out within days.
However, there are many uncertainties associated with atmospheric Hg chemistry, leading to uncertain predictions of its fate and ecosystem impacts.
Additionally, it…
