  31. TFMM, Zagreb, April 2005 Conclusions • Model output (air concentrations and depositions) is mostly sensitive to to washout ratio for particulate vvphase and Henry’s law constant Among environmental vvparameters the ambient temperature plays essential vvrole. • High spatial variability is characteristic of sensitivity of model output with respect to all considered parameters. • The influence of re-emission process is significant after long-term period of POP application especially in the remote regions.
