- Abstract
Two-dimensional, 8-segment mercury module of Aha Reservoir (surface area 4.15 km2; volume 0. 445 × 109 m 3) was developed using the WASP 7 modeling system. The model calculated the concentration of methylmercury for the water column generally agreed with the measured values reported in literature for Aha Reservoir. Combined ArcGIS 9.3 and WASP 7, the spatial and temporal variations of methylmercury concentration were got in Aha Reservoir. The MeHg concentration was different for eight segments and increased for segments 1, 4, 5, 7 and 8, decreased for segments 3 and 6, and changed little for segment 2 from March to August in 2005.
