Description:

Precipitation maxima occurences in the Upper Midwest in 1993 significantly affected total mercury concentrations and deposition as compared with 1990-92, 1994, and 1995. Methylmercury depositions strongly correlated with total mercury, major ions, and precepitation depth. Independent merucy measurement techniques show agreement at 1-35ng/L total mercury levels in water.
