Preliminary modelling and mapping of critical loads for cadmium and lead in EuropaTranslated Title
Voorlopige modellering en cartografie van kritische waarden voor cadmium en lood in EuropaPubliekssamenvatting
The Working Group on Effects (WGE) of the Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE-CLRTAP), noted the need to further develop and test the methodology for mapping critical loads for cadmium and lead. To this end, the WGE invited the International Cooperative Programme on Modelling and Mapping (ICP M&M) and its Coordination Center for Effects at the RIVM (RIVM-CCE) to issue, by the end of 2001, a call for relevant data to be provided by its network of National Focal Centers (NFCs) on a voluntary basis. This report describes the results of this call for data. Seventeen NFCs responded of which eleven provided data. The report, includes (a) the methodological guidance provided to the NFCs at the time of the call, (b) preliminary European maps of both critical and stand-still loads loads based on the response from Bulgaria, Belarus, The Czech Republic, Germany, Italy, The Netherlands, Russia, Slovakia, Switzerland, Ukrain, and The United Kingdom, and (c) preliminary exceedance maps produced in collaboration with the EMEP-Meteorological Synthesizing Centre East under the UNECE-CLRTAP, in collaboration with whom this report has been produced.De "Working Group on Effects" (WGE) van de "Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution" onder de "United Nations Economic Commission or Europe" (UNECE-CLRTAP) heeft tijdens haar 20e bijeenkomst besloten dat de methode om kritische depositiewaarden (critical loads) voor cadmium en lood in kaart te brengen verder ontwikkeld moet worden. Het RIVM-Coordination Center for Effects (RIVM-CCE), als onderdeel van de WGE, heeft gevolg hieraan gegeven met een oproep aan haar netwerk van 24 National Focal Centers om op basis van vrijwilligheid relevante data te verschaffen. 17 landen reageerden waarvan er 11 data verschaften. Dit rapport beschrijft de resultaten, waaronder data analyses en geografische kaarten van tentatieve kritische depositiewaarden voor cadmium en lood en van overschrijdingen in Europa
