The goals of this study are (1) to establish and maintain an integrated atmospheric modeling system for studying the long-range transport of regional air pollutants in order to predict and assess their impact on Taiwan air quality, and further to provide fundamental information to EPA for air pollution management, (2) to revise the PSI when abnormal air pollution events occur, (3) to maintain acid deposition net work for conducting a long-term monitoring and data analysis, (4) to maintain an integrated atmospheric mercury and heavy metals for studying the long-range transport of regional air pollutants, (5) to update and maintain the web site of acid rain study in Taiwan, and (6) to promote regional international collaborations.
