The assessment of loads of pollutants and of import and export of pollutants requires generalization of deposition over very different scales of time and space. The extension of results, e.g. measured in The Netherlands to e.g. China is absolutely wrong, but assessments are made in this fashion continuously. The errors induced by these extensions will be documented in first order assessment. The present expertise should also be applied to loads of pesticides and other compounds relevant of water quality.
Decision taken jointly with Commission VI-3, was to carry on thisproject as a workshop, attached to the Division Meeting, in June2000 in Israel.
In the mean time a first version of a document will be produced(first draft is ready) as a basis for this scientific discussion.
