The concentrations of ambient air particulates of various sizes (PM 1 , PM 2.5 , PM 6.25,  PM 10  and PM 18)  were measured using a MOUDI sampler at an agricultural sampling site in central Taiwan from January to September, 2020. The concentrations of particulate-bound mercury Hg(p) that were attached to particulates of various sizes (PM 1 , PM 2.5 , PM 6.25 , PM 10  and PM 18 )) were analyzed using a Direct Mercury Analyzer (DMA-80). The results revealed that the mean particulate and Hg(p) concentrations associated with PM 18 , PM 10 , PM 6.25 , PM 2.5  and the back filter were all highest in autumn and winter. The mean mass median diameter (m.m.d.) value for ambient air particulates was highest in the summer and lowest for Hg(p). The mean m.m.d. value for ambient air Hg(p) was highest in the winter and lowest for ambient air particulates. The northeast monsoon prevails in the winter season of Taiwan. Thus, The sources of particulates and Hg(p) pollutants might came from the northeast side of Taiwan - especially in spring and winter seasons. Thus, ambient air particulate concentrations are higher in the winter than in the spring. However, ambient air particulate-bound mercury Hg(p) tended to be associated more with coarse particulates than with other particulates. Finally, Hg(p) concentrations in Taiwan have increased over the last 15 years. Reducing atmospheric Hg(p) concentrations has become an important environmental goal in all countries - especially those in Asia.
