“…The two other laboratories whose results are included in this study used the same general techniques and presumably have comparable accuracy. 19 Be, Si, Cd, Bi, and Pb were determined by a single laboratory using emission spectroscopy. Accuracy was estimated 19 at ±25%, while the precision is of the order of ±10%.…”

“…19 Be, Si, Cd, Bi, and Pb were determined by a single laboratory using emission spectroscopy. Accuracy was estimated 19 at ±25%, while the precision is of the order of ±10%. In many instances these analytical techniques have detection limits greater than the concentrations present, thus providing only upper limits for elemental concentrations.…”

“…- 19 As part of the program, DAPC operated a 16 site high-volume sampling network over a 15 month period starting in August 1971, for the specific purpose of obtaining TSP samples that could then be analyzed for elemental content. Whatman-41 filters were used as the filtering medium because of their compatibility with the elemental analysis techniques employed.…”

“…To accomplish this, a referee waste oil was obtained by collecting service station engine crankcase drains. 2 This collected waste oil was considerably heavier than that used previously ( Table I). The burner system for this second program consisted of 3 five tube, high pressure boilers, and 3 oil fired, low pressure rotary cup Kewanee burners rated at 8*6.3 hp, 30,809 lb steam/hr, and 4,500,720 Btu which were originally designed to burn a No.…”

APCA NOTE-BOOKestimates. Figure 2 may be used as a guide in circumstances in which bulk water temperatures are evaluated, but in fully, parameterized models which yield the temperature of the water surface, 3 the physically based criterion e xs = 0.0 appears to be applicable. ConclusionsThe new FEWI seems to be a better measure of coolingpond fog susceptibility than the FIN of Currier et al.; it also has the benefit of being based on a simple physical model. It must be emphasized, however, that the result of Figure 2 should be applied to other circumstances only with considerable caution.

“…Simi larities also exist for aerosols collected on filters at other distant locales, i.e. Ghent, Belgium (D EMUYNCK et al, 1976), Wraymires, England (PEIRSON et al, 1973) and suburban New York (KING et al, 1976).…”

Twelve metals, Pb-210 and Pu-239+240 were measured over a year's period in atmospheric aerosols collected at La Jolla, California and Ensenada, Baja California. Substantial amounts of the metals in the solid phases are leachable into sea water. During the winter months at La Jolla, lead, nickel and Pb-210 had higher atmospheric concentrations than at other times, suggesting local sources during this period of temperature inversion. Lead and nickel appear to have significant anthropogenic components. Overall, the concentrations of the metals and radionuclides in aerosols are similar to those in other sites of the northern hemisphere.For the southern California coastal region, the atmospheric fluxes of aerosols to the marine environ ment may govern measurably the metal concentrations in surface waters. On the other hand, these fluxes do not account for the accumulation of metals in the coastal sediments.
