A balance of sulfur emissions with deposition and effluxes in eastern North America is obtained for both annual and semi-annual periods using a previously reported regional transport model. Of the total regional sulfur emissions, 60% is deposited (wet and dry) and 40% flows out of the region. U.S.A. sulfur transboundary export to Canada is eight times the reverse flow. The respective transboundary flows are apportioned among the states and provinces.
