Book excerpt: Divalent and particulate mercury fall out of the atmosphere in precipitation or as dry deposition (deposition of particulate and vapor-phase mercury in the absence of precipitation) as opposed to elemental mercury which can cycle in the atmosphere for months or years. [...] In response to public pressure, the United States has suspended the sale of approximately 4500 tonnes of government -held mercury as of 1994, and is currently assessing its environmental impact, and options for its disposal or sale.28 Figure 5 illustrates the change in volumes of mercury imported and exported from Canada, the United States and Mexico over the early part of the 1990's. [...] The United States has land disposal restrictions on mercury-bearing hazardous wastes, resulting in much of mercury waste being burned.41 Mercury is not destroyed by burning, and such burning results in the release of essentially all the mercury in the waste to the atmosphere. [...] This section of the report introduces some of the environmental and human health impacts of mercury in the Great Lakes, and identifies, where possible, some of the associated economic costs. [...] Impacts of Mercury on the Great Lakes Environment Mercury has been identified as a teratogen, mutagen, and carcinogen, and the cause of a variety of behavioral effects in wildlife.78 Determining the impact of mercury on.

Download or read book Protection of Great Lakes Water Quality from Atmospheric Contaminant Deposition written by International Joint Commission and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents proceedings of a workshop designed to explore whether legal authorities exist to deal with deposition of contaminants from the air and the extent to which governments are using those authorities. Specifically, it compares & contrasts the legal tools available under current Canadian & US law to control atmospheric deposition of persistent toxic substances to the Great Lakes originating from sources within & outside the Great Lakes Basin. The workshop developed a hypothetical scenario in which Acme Widget, a proposed new facility, would emit mercury from its stack. A portion of that mercury would be deposited into nearby Lake Hypo, increasing the mercury loadings to the lake & fish. In the proceedings, legal teams from the US & Canada present arguments from the perspective of Acme and from an environmental group. A panel provided reactions to the legal arguments.

Download or read book Toxic Contaminants in the Great Lakes written by and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After introductory sections on the transport and fate of contaminants in the Great Lakes and contaminant loadings to the lakes, this paper presents ambient concentrations and trends (in the water column, in open-lake fish, in herring gulls, and in the atmosphere). The paper focuses on the 11 critical contaminants identified by the International Joint Commission, including organochlorines, heavy metals, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. The goal is to provide sufficient information on contaminant levels and trends to stimulate discussion among interested parties, and to assist future decision-making on Great Lakes environmental quality issues. The paper also outlines linkages between contaminants and other ecosystem components. The appendix includes a review of existing contaminant monitoring programs in the Great Lakes region and descriptions of the contaminants considered in the paper.

Download or read book Nonparametric Statistical Methods written by Myles Hollander and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-11-25 with total page 872 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Praise for the Second Edition “This book should be an essential part of the personal library of every practicing statistician.”—Technometrics Thoroughly revised and updated, the new edition of Nonparametric Statistical Methods includes additional modern topics and procedures, more practical data sets, and new problems from real-life situations. The book continues to emphasize the importance of nonparametric methods as a significant branch of modern statistics and equips readers with the conceptual and technical skills necessary to select and apply the appropriate procedures for any given situation. Written by leading statisticians, Nonparametric Statistical Methods, Third Edition provides readers with crucial nonparametric techniques in a variety of settings, emphasizing the assumptions underlying the methods. The book provides an extensive array of examples that clearly illustrate how to use nonparametric approaches for handling one- or two-sample location and dispersion problems, dichotomous data, and one-way and two-way layout problems. In addition, the Third Edition features: The use of the freely available R software to aid in computation and simulation, including many new R programs written explicitly for this new edition New chapters that address density estimation, wavelets, smoothing, ranked set sampling, and Bayesian nonparametrics Problems that illustrate examples from agricultural science, astronomy, biology, criminology, education, engineering, environmental science, geology, home economics, medicine, oceanography, physics, psychology, sociology, and space science Nonparametric Statistical Methods, Third Edition is an excellent reference for applied statisticians and practitioners who seek a review of nonparametric methods and their relevant applications. The book is also an ideal textbook for upper-undergraduate and first-year graduate courses in applied nonparametric statistics.
