This study aimed to determine the amount and composition of dust fall in semi-urban areas in Selangor, Malaysia from mid-July to mid-October 2010. The dust fall samples (a combination of dry and wet deposition) through rainwater were collected using polyethylene bottles on a monthly basis so as to determine the concentration of total solids, soluble and insoluble solids from eight monitoring stations. Zn was recorded as the dominant heavy metal in rainwater followed by Fe, Al, Pb, Cd and Cr. This study suggests that sea salts, earth crust and anthropogenic activities such as motor vehicles were the main sources of dust fall in the study areas.
