Chemical transport modelling is a universal tool of mercury pollution assessment. Its role is particularly important for the evaluation of atmospheric mercury dispersion over long distances, taking into account the limited coverage of existing monitoring networks (see Chapter B2). In particular, model simulations provide estimates of mercury ambient concentration and deposition on global and regional scales, evaluation of intercontinental transport and forecasts of future pollution changes. Thus, application of chemical transport models can supplement direct measurements, giving more comprehensive and detailed information on mercury pollution.
