Abstract

|
|
Precipitation samples were collected at sixteen sites in Northeast Asia from June 1995 to February 1997, and were analysed for the anions , and and for the cartons $Na^+, NH_4^+, K^+, Mg^{2+} and in addition to pH and conductivity measurements. The quality assurance of chemical composition data was checked by considering the ion balance evaluating by 1 h 1 value and the conductilfty balance. The sum of cation concentrations were slightty greater than the sum of anion concentraions. For the anions, clearly dominates in most of sampling states whereas $Cl^-$ is more abundant in coast and rural sites In. Tapan. For the cations. and are generally the more abundant tons except when sources of Na+ exist. The contribution rate of nss-$SO_4^2-and NO_3^-$ to acidity are about 70% and 10-30%. respectively. The neutralizing capacity by a major neutralizing cations such as and nuts -. are above 98%(heavy polluted and urban sites in China), above 70%(urban sites in Japi,n and in Korea, coast sites In Chinas and above 60%(rural sites in Japan and in Korea), respectively.
