Definition

  • The Mercury Deposition Network (MDN) is a national database of weekly concentrations of total mercury in precipitation and the seasonal and annual flux of total mercury in wet deposition. The MDN is a part of the National Atmospheric Deposition Program (NADP) Network. The MDN began a transition network of 13 sites in 1995. Beginning in 1996, MDN became an official network in NADP with 26 sites in operation. Over 30 sites were in operation during 1998. The MDN is anticipated to operate for a minimum of five years and will be managed at the NADP Coordination Office.
