1 Comparing 6 years of event-based rainfall deposition of mercury and major ions collected close to a coal-fired power plant with nearby NADP/MDN sites A. ter Schure 1, J. Caffrey 2, W. Landing 3, N. Krishnamurthy 3, A. Maestre 2 1) EPRI, 2) UWF, 3) FSU NADP 2012 Fall Meeting and Scientific Symposium South Portland, ME October 2-5, 2012
2 Content Introduction Material and Methods Sites Sampling Results Monthly wet deposition totals Annual wet deposition vs. MDN Sulfate Deposition: Hg/SO 4 ratios Nitrate Deposition: Hg/NO 3 ratios Summary of results 2
3 Introduction Atmospheric deposition can be a significant source of nutrients and other contaminants in many watersheds. Contaminants come from local and regional emissions as well as the global background pool. Deposition of such compounds may have a negative impact on plant and animal communities, ecosystem function and human health. The primary objective of this project is to measure mercury, trace metals and major ions in rainfall over annual cycles around plant Crist in Pensacola, FL and for the Pensacola Bay watershed. 3
4 Introduction MDN network: regional, weekly integrated, not designed for source apportionment Few event-based networks Prior and existing event-based networks short-lived Need multi-year data records due to inter annual variability Coal-fired power plants are the largest anthropogenic source of mercury to the atmosphere thought to contribute to local deposition but no long-term measurements available Need multi-year, event-based data records to detect signal and signal change. 4
