“…Snow precipitation and snowpack are commonly used to assess the condition of the aerial environment in urban areas and at remote sites [1,2]. Falling snow scavenges air pollutants of both anthropogenic and natural origins [3,4]. Due to their larger surface area and slower deposition speed, snowflakes absorb more air pollutants compared to raindrops [5].…”

Snow precipitation and snowpack are commonly used to assess the condition of the aerial environment. Another way to monitor air quality is to study trees and shrubs, which are natural barriers for capturing air pollution, including atmospheric particulate matter. The hypothesis of the current study was that using fresh snow precipitation and washout from vegetation for the monitoring of air pollution can produce comparable results. In this study, we compared the results of laser diffraction analysis of suspended particular matter in melted fresh snow and ultrasound-treated washout from conifer needles. The samples were collected at several sites in Primorsky Krai, Russian Federation, and analyzed according to the same scheme. We observed that the content of particulate matter with a smaller aerodynamic diameter in the ultrasound-treated washout from conifer needles was higher than that in the melted fresh snow. The content of PM10 in the ultrasound-treated washout from conifers was increased by 6–27% depending on the site, showing greater efficacy of this method. This method can be used as an alternative to the sampling of snow for the monitoring of ambient air pollution, taking into account several limitations.

“…The ecology analysis of any modern residential area, as well as statistical data on the population morbidity, reflect the increasing level of impact of dust on the people's health [Kim et al, 2015;Patra et al, 2016;Dubey et al, 2018;Kim et al, 2018]. Human life and activities cause increased aerotechnogenic load typical of almost all cities [Davydova, & Znamenskaya, 2016;Baltrėnaitė et al, 2018;Shevchenko et al, 2018].…”

The aim of this study was to analyze the dust load in St. Petersburg based on the measurements of dust levels in different areas of the city using a CEM DT-9880 portable dust particle counter. A uniform one-character bottom up zoning was performed to determine the parameters, and the dependencies of dust distribution on various factors were identified using the "Ecolog" software package. The zoning was based on more than 2.5 thousand measurements of dust levels. An effective and rational solution to the problem of increased aerotechnogenic load in different areas of the city through the use of modern technologies of hydro-dedusting of city roads with a dust-binding solution based on surfactants was proposed for increasing the adhesion ability of the solution to the standard roadbed.
