Abstract:As a major source of air pollution, particulate matter (PM) and associated toxic trace elements pose potentially serious threats to human health and environmental safety. As is known that plants can reduce air PM pollution. However, the relationship between PM of different sizes and toxic trace elements in foliar PM is still unclear. This study was performed to explore the association between PM of different sizes (PM2.5, PM10, PM>10) and toxic trace elements (As, Al, Cu, Zn, Cd, Fe, Pb) as well as the corr… Show more
