Short summary
This study was performed to identify likely source directions and locations of total gaseous mercury (TGM) using CPF, CBPF and TPSCF. Previous studies showed the importance of long-range transport of TGM but not local sources. However, the results from various approaches suggested the importance of local sources near industrial areas including iron and manufacturing facilities, hazardous waste incinerators and the coastal areas relative to distant sources.
