“…Most likely, this is due to the fact that in Ulan-Ude, an anti-ice mixture is not used on the roads in winter. The content of sulfates in Ulan-Ude was higher than in other cities (excluding Angarsk, Svirsk, and Blagoveshchensk 9,11 ). The intake of sulfates is caused by the combustion of fuel containing sulfur by boiler houses and thermal power plants 12 .…”

The results of the study of the chemical composition of the snow cover in Ulan-Ude and the background area of the Republic of Buryatia in 2022 are presented. It was established that the snow melt waters in Ulan-Ude belonged to the sulfate class, calcium group. The maximum concentrations of major ions and compounds of nitrogen and phosphorus were determined near thermal power facilities. The relative content of the suspended form of total phosphorus in snow melt water was significantly higher than the content of its dissolved form. Nitrate nitrogen was the predominant form of mineral nitrogen. The accumulation of most pollutants in the snow cover in Ulan-Ude was significantly higher than in the background area.

“…Samples were collected and prepared in accordance with the Russian State Standard for air pollution control and several studies (Williamson et al 2008;Galitskaya and Rumyantseva 2012;Kasimov et al 2012;Filimonova et al 2015;Yanchenko et al 2015;Grebenshchikova et al 2017;Taraškevičius et al 2017;Gustaytis et al 2018). To obtain the representative data on atmospheric Hg snow cover deposition rates during the winter season, snow sampling was performed at the end of February, before the beginning of the snowmelt period.…”

Some researchers (Nelson et al 2007;Galitskaya and Rumyantseva 2012;Zhang et al 2013;Siudek et al 2014) revealed that during winter season the combustion of coal, which is still applied in numerous countries for the energy generation irrespective of negative impact on the climate, caused high Hg contents in snow cover within the urban areas.…”

Although snow cover is studied as an efficient scavenger for atmospheric mercury (Hg), up to now little is known about Hg behaviour in urban snow cover impacted by thermal power plants (TPPs) during the winter heating season. This study is focused on quantification of Hg in the particulate phase in snow cover and estimation of atmospheric particulate Hg (HgP) depositional fluxes around urban TPPs in cities of Omsk, Kemerovo, Yurga, Tomsk (the south part of Western Siberia, Russia) to provide new insight into Hg occurrence in urban snow. The results demonstrate that the mean Hg content in the particulate phase of snow varied from 0.139 to 0.205mg kg-1, possibly depending on thermal power of TPPs and fuel type used. The estimated mean atmospheric HgP depositional fluxes ranged from 6.6 to 73.1 mg km-2 d-1. Around thermal power plants atmospheric HgP depositional flux was controlled by particulate load. Higher Hg contents in the particulate phase of snow and higher atmospheric HgP depositional fluxes observed in relation to the background values, as well as high enrichment factors determined for Hg in the particulate phase of snow relative to the mean Hg content in the Earth’s crust showed that the snow pollution with Hg is of anthropogenic origin. The coexistence of Hg and S observed for the particulate phase of snow indicated the possible presence of mercury sulfide in this phase. The parameters like Hg content in the particulate phase of snow and HgP atmospheric flux can be used as markers for the identification of coal combustion emission sources.

“…Recently, an increase in the number of studies aimed at determining natural and anthropogenic sources of pollution is observed [Vasic et al, 2012;Grebenshchikova et al, 2017;Gustaytis et al, 2018]. The sources of trace elements and metalloids in atmospheric emissions are evidently associated not only with natural processes, such as weathering of rocks, mineralization and dust storms, but also with industrial activities, i.e.…”

The isotopic composition of copper is of great interest for researchers in various fields of science, geo chemistry and hydrology in particular, wherein the consideration is being given to the variations in the isotopic composition of the Earth's crust, extraterrestrial matter, and water basins, as well as to the origin and transfer of matter. Zn isotopes appear to be promising for identifying the sources and pathways of the environmental pollution. The aim of this study involves the refinement and validation of the zinc and copper isotopic ratio determination methodology covering the whole process from sample digestion to MC ICP-MS measurements. For this reason, as well as to assess the suitability of the methodology for the analysis of environmental samples, Zn and Cu isotopic analysis of the BHVO-2, BCR-2 and AGV2 USGS certified reference materials has been performed. The method for determination of Cu and Zn stable isotope ratios by multi-collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry in environmental samples is developed. The application of the AG MP1 resin with optimized layer parameters (resin bed height 3.5 cm, diameter 1 cm) provides the highpurity Cu and Zn fractions. The method is characterized by high throughput and adequate analytical figures of merit when using the standardsample bracketing technique for mass bias correction. The procedural blanks related to chemical dissolution and ion exchange procedures are lower than 1 and 3 ng for Cu and Zn, respectively, assuring no blank effect on the isotopic composition of samples. The accuracy and precision obtained for Cu and Zn isotope measurements in the BHVO2, BCR2 and AGV2 geological certified reference materials demonstrate good agreement with the reference values published.
