Abstract:

The results are presented of determination of multielement composition of atmospheric aerosol (AA) at three sites of the Novosibirsk region by neutron activation analysis (NAA). The data are obtained on the multielement composition of aerosol sampled on filters (total content) and two–stage virtual impactors capable of determining the multielement composition of two size fractions of AA (submicron – d₅₀ < 1 mm and coarse d₅₀ > 1 mm ones). The conclusion about the principal aerosol sources in Siberian region is drawn based on the enrichment coefficients and the results of statistical processing.
