Figure 4:            Time-series of computed total annual atmospheric deposition of mercury to six sub-basins of the Baltic Sea for the period 1990-2002 in tonnes/year as bars (left axis) and total deposition fluxes in g/km2/year as lines (right axis). Note that different scales are used for total depositions in tonnes/year and the sames scales for total deposition fluxes.
