Total filterable mercury and 210Pb in the Canadian Arctic air.
Total filterable mercury (TFM) and lead-210 ((210)Pb) were measured for a one-year air particulate sample series collected weekly at Resolute (74.7 degrees N, 95.0 degrees W), a Canadian high Arctic site, during July 1999 and June 2000. The measurements showed a clear time lag of two months between the peak concentrations of TFM and (210)Pb.
