Abstract
Dit rapport presenteert de resultaten van de in 1997 uitgevoerde metingen van de chemische samenstelling van neerslag in Nederland. De metingen zijn uitgevoerd op 4-wekelijkse monsters verkregen uit het Landelijk Meetnet Regenwatersamenstelling. Op 15 stations werden monsters verzameld voor analyse op hoofdcomponenten en op anorganische microcomponenten (zware metalen). In de monsters van de hoofdcomponenten werden de concentraties van vrij zuur (hydronium/waterstofcarbonaat), natrium, kalium, calcium, magnesium, fluoride, chloride, nitraat, sulfaat en fosfaat bepaald. Voorts werden van deze monsters de geleidbaarheid en de pH bepaald. De monsters voor zware metalen werden geanalyseerd op cadmium, koper, lood, ijzer en zink. Bovendien werden de monsters van twee stations geanalyseerd op arseen, chroom, nikkel en vanadium. Daarnaast werden op twee stations aparte monsters verzameld voor analyse op het bestrijdingsmiddel lindaan (g-HCH) en kwik.<br>
This report presents the results of the chemical composition measurements of precipitation in the Netherlands in 1997. Measurements were performed on 4-weekly samples obtained from the National Precipitation Chemistry Monitoring Network. Samples from 15 stations were analysed for main components and inorganic micro-components (heavy metals). Analysis of the main component samples determined the concentrations of free acid (hydrogen ions/hydrogen carbonate), sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, fluoride, chloride, nitrate, sulphate and phosphate, along with conductivity and pH value. The samples for heavy metals were analysed for cadmium, copper, iron, lead and zinc. Arsenic, chrome, nickel and vanadium were also determined in samples from two stations. Additionally, separate samples were taken at two stations for analysis of the component mercury and the pesticide lindane (g-HCH).<br>
