ASSESSMENT OF LONG-RANGE TRANSPORT AND DEPOSITION FROM CU-NI SMELTERS IN RUSSIAN NORTH

  • Conference paper
Book cover Air, Water and Soil Quality Modelling for Risk and Impact Assessment

Abstract

The main aim of this pilot study was an evaluation, from a probabilistic point of view, of possible temporal and spatial distribution of deposition patterns due to atmospheric transport from three smelters of the Kola Peninsula (Russia). These patterns with GIS integration can be used further for the estimation of possible short- and long-term consequences resulting from sources of continuous emissions for the environment and population on regional and Northern Hemispheric scales.
