The Pollution Potential of Animal Production Systems : Origin and Atmospheric Cycling of Their Pollutants

축산환경의 오염 잠재력 : 축산오염 물질의 발생과 대기환경계 순환

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.
