Abstract
In summer of 2002, we measured the exchange flux of mercury between air and soil surface using the
method of Dynamic Flux Chamber (DFC) in Hongfeng lake region. At the same time, we recorded meteorological
parameters such as air temperature, soil temperature, wind speed and solar radiation using a multi-function
mini-weather station (global water III). Soil, moss and fertilizer samples in study area were also collected. The Hg
fluxes of air/soil surface rangeed from -11.0ng m
-2 h
-1 to 219.0ng m
-2h
-1, averaged at 29.2 ng m
-2 h
-1 (
). The
data show that the exchange of mercury is bi-direction between air and soit surface: namely both emission and
deposition of mercury occurs, but Hg emission is much more frequent than deposition process (
). The average mercury content in soil, moss, fertilizer sample are
ng/g (
),
ng/g (
), 53.4ng/g (
) respectively.
