Review of methods that can be used in the assessment of atmospheric deposition

Abstract

There are three main approaches for estimating the atmospheric deposition: 1) From measurements of air and precipitation chemistry combined with statistical interpolation, 2) Chemical transport models, 3) Combined observations and atmospheric model calculations. This report reviews these different approaches and come with some general recommendations on the different strategies and the way forward for Poland. The report was made for the project "Strengthening of atmospheric deposition assessment in Poland based on Norwegian experience" under the program "Environment, Energy and Climate Change", financed by the European Economic Area Financial Mechanism 2014-2021".

Det er tre hovedtilnærminger for å estimere atmosfæriske avsetningen: 1) Fra målinger av luft- og nedbørskjemi kombinert med statistisk interpolasjon, 2) kjemiske transportmodeller, 3) kombinere observasjoner og atmosfæriske modellberegninger. Denne rapporten gjennomgår disse forskjellige tilnærmingene og kommer med noen generelle anbefalinger om de forskjellige strategiene og veien videre for Polen.
