A Handbook to Estimate Climatological Concentration Deposit and Horizontal Fluxes of Pollutants on a Regional Scale - Technical Report
(1979)
It is now recognized that the air transport of pollutants to distances outside of urban and local industrial areas must be considered for a number of environmental problems. Two general types of problems arise.. In the ...
Analytical Methods of Detection Identification and Quantitative Determination of Aflatoxins in Foodstuffs and Fodder
(Monitoring and Assessment Research Centre, 1984)
Analytical Methods of Detection Identification and Quantitative Determination of Aflatoxins in Foodstuffs and Fodder
An Introduction to the Exposure Commitment Concept with Reference to Environmental Mercury - MARC Report Number 12
(Monitoring and Assessment Research Centre, 1979)
When a toxic substance is released to the environment, it may not immediately reach and affect a population of sensitive receptors. This is particularly true if the substance must pass through a sequence of environmental ...
Atmospheric Pathways of Sulphur Compounds: A General Report - MARC Report Number 7
(1978)
This report broadly reviews the atmospheric transport of sulphur compounds on a regional scale. It lists estimates of present global emissions and summarizes present knowledge concerning transport models needed to estimate ...
Kinetic and Exposure Commitment Analyses of Lead Behavior In A Biosphere Reserve : A Technical Report - MARC Report Number 15
(1979)
The detailed analysis of an environmental system is a prerequisite to efficient monitoring design. Such analysis includes the sampling scheme, field measurements, pathway analysis and exposure response. The exposure ...
Lead Pollution of the Global Environment - Progress Reports in Environmental Monitoring And Assessment 1: Lead - MARC Report Number 16-18
(1980)
The production and release of lead into the environment is briefly reviewed and some attempt is made to quantify the movement of lead from atmosphere to man, both via the soil food chain and the respiration pathway. Existing ...

Lead in the Soil Environment: A Technical Report - MARC Report Number 21
(Monitoring and Assessment Research Centre, 1980)
This survey of the literature on lead in soil discusses methods of estimation of total and available lead in soils, the relationships between soil properties and the uptake of lead by plants, and the form and distribution ...
A Preliminary Evaluation Of WMO-UNEP Precipitation Chemistry Data - MARC Report Number 22
(Monitoring and Assessment Research Centre, 1980)
In this paper a preliminary evaluation is made of some of the precipitation chemistry data available from the network for the period 1972-76. It is expected that a more thorough analysis of the quality of the data and the ...
