Mercury translocation in and evaporation from soil. III. quantification of evaporation of mercury from podzolized soil profiles treated with Hg Cl
Mercury evaporation from undisturbed iron‐humus podzol lysimeters was measured over 3 months after treatment with HgCl2 spiked with radioactive 203Hg. The relative evaporation rate from HgCl2 treated soils followed the sum of two exponential functions. Because evaporation asymptotically approaches zero with time, the integral of the fit curve represents the evaporative loss in percent of atmospheric deposition. For the soil investigated, about 5% of atmospheric Hg deposition was reemitted into the atmosphere. It is hypothesized that mercury evaporation can decrease the leaching of mercury in and from soil significantly; this effect is probably increasing with decreasing rain acidity or soil acidity. Mercury deposited as soluble salt remains susceptible to reemission to air for 300 d after incorporation into the soil matrix. Indications are found that Hg evaporation from soils in geological background areas predominantly derives from recent atmospheric Hg deposition and not from geological sources.
