Despite considerable progresses made in our understanding of environmental fate of pollutants stemming from animal production systems, relatively little is known about the processes and mechanisms regulating their dispersement (via emission) into and deposition from the earth's atmospheric system. Here we present and summarize up-to-date knowledge on this topic with a main emphasis on their origin, physico-chemical characteristics, and geochemical distribution behavior.

Ambient TSP at four sites in Korea and soil samples from the source regions of Asian Dust in northern China were collected and analyzed for 15 metal components and 6 water-soluble ions to conduct a chemical mass balance (CMB). CMB receptor model was used to estimate the source contribution of TSP during the Asian Dust period, and the model results showed that China soil was the largest source contributor, accounting for 81% of TSP ($458.2{\mu}g/m^3$). Vehicle emission and geological sources contributed to about 8.8% and 4.4% of aerosol mass, followed by sea salt (1.5%) and secondary aerosol (2.9%). Fuel combustion and industrial process sources were found to be relatively minor contributors to TSP (${\leq}1%$). In addition to source contribution estimates, this study tried to identify the origin of Asian Dust observed in Korea. Among all 13 China soil profiles presented in this study, the most adoptable profile which can project the case well was selected and considered as the origin of the applied case.

A single particle analytical technique, called low-Z electron probe X-ray microanalysis (low-Z EPMA) was applied to characterize atmospheric particles collected in Busan, Korea, over a daytime period in Dec. 2001. The ability to quantitatively analyze the low-Z elements, such as C, N, and 0, in microscopic volume enables the low-Z EPMA to specify the chemical composition of individual atmospheric particle. Various types of atmospheric particles such as organics, carbon-rich, aluminosilicates, silicon oxide, calcium carbonate, iron oxide, sodium chloride, sodium nitrate, ammonium sulfate, and titanium oxide were identified. In the sample collected in Busan, sodium nitrate particles produced as a result of the reaction between sea salt and nitrogen oxides in the atmosphere were most abundantly encountered both in the coarse and fine fractions. On the contrary, original sea salt particles were rarely observed. The fact that most of the carbonaceous particles were distributed in the fine fraction implies that their origin is anthropogenic.

The gaseous $^{222}Rn$ concentration at the level of clouds was estimated by using the wet scavenging model of its decay products with the observed data of environmental radiation at the ground. And the origin of the $^{222}Rn$ was also discussed. The estimation was done for a precipitation event on Dec. 26-27, 2003, when a large increase of the radiation was observed in Tokai-mura in Ibaraki, Japan. From a backward trajectory analysis, the origin of $^{222}Rn$ atoms for that event was traced back to the northeastern part of China, and it was expected that the large amount of $^{222}Rn$ emitted in the northeastern part of China was transported to Tokai-mura by the Eurasian continental air mass.

Twenty-five atmospheric particulates were collected using a high volume aerosol sampler from Septermber to December, 1988 on a site located on the West coast of Korea and analysed for twelve elements (Na, Mg, Al, Mn, Fe, Cu, Co, Ni, Zn, Ag, Cd, and Pb) by AAS. The particles being mainly crustal minerals, large quantity of spherical fly ashes were also observed. In order to identify the origin of trace metals in atmospheric particulates, enrichment factor, interelemental correlation and factor analysis were performed. Based upon these analysis, the twelve elements can be classified into three groups; the elements dominantly present in soil particles (Al, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni), those in sea salt aerosols (Na and Mg), and those in air pollution-derived particles (Cu, Cd, Pb, Ag and Zn).

This study investigates the generation and movement of low-concentration $CO_2$ observed in Gosan during summer from 2002 to 2006. For analysis, additional $CO_2$ data in Anmyeondo, Ryori, Barrow, and Minamitorishima as well as NOAA/ESRL daily global $CO_2$ fields, background trajectories data, and 850 hPa wind fields are also used. Based on analyses using various observed data, we classified three types of low-concentration $CO_2$ in Gosan according to its origin: i) the origin of the Siberian continental, in which the consumption of $CO_2$ is active due to photosynthesis from broad forests, ii) the origin of Okhotsh and Artic seas, in which the low-concentration $CO_2$ is dominant due to high primary productivity by a plankton bloom, and iii) the origin of the Northwestern Pacific which is related to the entry of air mass from high latitudes. These results show that the low-concentration $CO_2$ observed in Gosan during summer is not originated from the Pacific oceans as known in previous studies, but originated from high latitude regions such as the Siberian continental and the Okhotsh and Artic seas.

It is well known that atmospheric aerosols play an important role in the radiation balance of the earth and meteorological processes as well as in atmospheric chemistry. Aerosols may origin from both natural and/or anthropogenic sources. Thus, the chemical composition of aerosols can vary considerably. For example, the chemical composition of marine aerosol has been the subject of a considerable number of investigations, including the evaluation of long-range transport of anthropogenic constituents on the chemistry of the remote marine boundary layer.

도심에 위치한 탄산염암 석조문화재는 주로 대기 오염으로 인하여 흑색층이 형성되어 있으며 심하게 손상되어 있는 상태이다. XRF, XRD, SEM 등의 분석을 통하여 도심에 위치한 석탑 표면에 형성된 흑색층의 화학조성, 구성광물, 미세조직에 대해 연구하였다. 또한 흑색층이 원암에 끼치는 영향을 밝히고, 나아가 안정환동위원소분석법을 적용하여 흑색층 내에 함유되어 있는 황성분의 기원을 밝혔다. 석탑 원암의 구성광물은 방해석이지만 흑색층은 석고와 소량의 석영을 포함하고 있다. 흑색층을 구성하는 다량의 석고는 석탑 내부에 균열을 생성시키는 원인 물질이며, 흑색층과 원암의 경계면은 흑색을 띠는 것은 아니지만 그 특성이 흑색층과 유사하여 대기오염 물질을 쉽게 흡착하여 흑화될수 있다는 것을 보여주었다. 안정황동위원소분석 결과 흑색층에 함유되어 있는 황의 주 기원이 다를 수 있음이 밝혀졌다.

Since November 1990, the observations of carbon dioxide$(CO_2)$ levels have been carried out at Tae-ahn Peninsula(TAP) in Korea. Analysis on atmospheric data obtained in the period from November 1990 to August 1992 is carried out and the results are included in this study. It is observed that variations of monthly average level on $CO_2$ are in the range of 315.72 $\sim$ 365.37ppm(amplitude 17.65ppm). The seasonal variation is large with a maximum occurring in March-April and with a minimum in July-August. A comparison of TAP data is made with data obtained at Ryori in Japan for 1991. The annual average value of TAP is 1.79ppm higher than that of Ryori. It is also found that in summer the minimum level of $CO_2$ at TAP is almost same as the $CO_2$ level occurring at Quinghai Province in China and at Ulaan Uul in Mongolia. Albeit, a maximum concentration of $CO_2$ at TAP is slightly higher than that of the same gas observed at other sites in spring. We interpret that TAP is generally under the influence of airflows coming from China. According to analysis of trajectories and airflows, we find the high values of $CO_2$ when an air flow is originated mainly from China and when an airflow is both of local(Korea) and of China origins. In contrast, when an airflow of maritime origin arrives, a low value of the atmospheric constituent is observed at TAP.
