Atmospheric mercury concentrations observed at ground-based monitoring sites globally distributed in the framework of the GMOS network
Long-term monitoring of data of ambient mercury (Hg) on a global scale to assess its emission, transport, atmospheric chemistry, and deposition processes is vital to understanding the impact of Hg pollution on the environment. The Global Mercury Observation System (GMOS) project was funded by the Eu...
