“…Some of the samplers we review here are unable to distinguish between GOM and GEM (Gustin and Jaffe, 2010;Pandey et al, 2011;Skov et al, 2007). GEM generally makes up > 98-99 % of TGM at most sampling locations (Pandey et al, 2011;Gustin and Jaffe, 2010;Gustin et al, 2011), and thus GOM is expected to contribute a relatively minor proportion to the overall uncertainty of a GEM measurement (Pandey et al, 2011).…”

“…GEM's relatively high vapour pressure and inertness to atmospheric oxidation leads to a long atmospheric residence time of approximately 1 year (Lin et al, 2006;Pirrone et al, 2010;Skov et al, 2004). GOM and PBM have much shorter atmospheric residence times and are deposited closer to their source locations (Lin et al, 2006;Pandey et al, 2011;Skov et al, 2007). Thus GEM is typically the dominant species of atmospheric Hg globally (Ebinghaus et al, 2002;Gustin and Jaffe, 2010;Pandey et al, 2011), and the only species subject to significant LRAT (Driscoll et al, 2013;Nguyen et al, 2009;Selin, 2009).…”

“…Gold amalgamation preconcentration, followed by thermal desorption (TD) in Ar carrier gas and detection via atomic fluorescence spectrometry (AFS), is a commonly used method for quantifying atmospheric elemental mercury vapor, Hg 0 (g) (hereafter referred to as gaseous elemental mercury, GEM) (Schroeder et al, 1995;Gustin and Jaffe, 2010;Pandy et al, 2011). Coupled with various sample capture and pretreatment methods, the above measurement scheme is also used for quantitative analysis of atmospheric gaseous oxidized mercury (GOM) (Stratton and Lindberg, 1995;Landis et al, 2002;Lyman et al, 2007), total gaseous mercury (TGM ≡ GEM + GOM) , atmospheric particle-bound mercury (PBM) (Landis et al, 2002), atmospheric total mercury (THg ≡ GEM + GOM + PBM) (Jaffe et al, 2005), and total aqueous Hg (USEPA, 2002).…”

“…Hg 0 is generally considered to be fairly stable in the atmosphere, with an estimated troposphere residence time of one to two years (Pandey et al, 2011). This investigation characterizes variations in the size of distribution of particles that contain mercury Hg(p) using a four-stage MOUDI sampler (PM 18 + , PM 18-10 , PM 10-2.5 and PM 2.5-1 ) at two sampling sites in Central Taiwan.…”
