“…Do źródeł pierwotnych związków organicznych węgla należą procesy spalania, na przykład benzyny w silnikach spalinowych, biomasy oraz procesy rozpadu produktów zawierają-cych w składzie węgiel. Do grupy źródeł pierwotnego OC można zaliczyć także roślinność, w tym pyłki roślin, zarodniki, rozdrobniony materiał roślinny, a także bakterie, wirusy (Rogge i in., 1993;Lewandowska i in., 2010). Intensywność tworzenia wtórnego węgla organicznego zależy od kierunku i dynamiki reakcji chemicznych zachodzących w atmosferze, w szczególności reakcji przemian lotnych związków organicznych (Kroll i Seinfeld, 2008).…”

The research presented herein aimed at recognition of submicrone particulate matter concentration as well as organic (OC) and elemental (EC) carbon bound to it in a lecture room and students’ laboratory. The 24-h variability of PM1, OC and EC concentration in both rooms were also discussed along with I : O ratio. In the analysed period – the turn of spring and summer – independent of the location (Gliwice – students’ laboratory, Warsaw – lecture room) the indoor concentration of elemental carbon EC was conditioned by the intensity of those contaminants migration along with atmospheric air. Because of this, it can be concluded that in neither of the rooms there was an important source of OC and EC. However, it should be noted, that conditions favourable for different contaminant sorption, in particular those belonging to OC bound to particulate matter, vary in time and space. It is expected, that for other measurement period – for instance in winter, when rooms are ventilated seldom and PM has different composition, the cummulation of indoor contaminants, including OC, may be higher than for warm period.

“…The data are available at http://153.19.140.100/wx200_data/. Because wind speed measurements were conducted, as with all other measurements, at a height of 20 m above sea level, the value was corrected for u 10 using the formula given by Schwarzenbach et al (1993) (Lewandowska et al 2010). …”

Fluoride concentrations were determined in PM10 samples collected in the urbanized coastal area of the Baltic Sea (Gdynia) in the period between 1 August 2008 and 8 January 2010. F− concentrations remained within the range of 0.4–36.6 ng · m−3. The economic transformations which have taken place in Poland increasing ecological awareness have had an excellent effect on the levels of fluoride pollution in the air of the studied region. In our measurements, fluoride concentrations increased in wintertime, when air temperature dropped, at low wind speeds (<1 m · s−1) and with low dispersion of pollutants originating from local sources (traffic, industry, domestic heating). At times when wind speed grew to >10 m · s−1, fluorides were related to marine aerosols or else brought from distant sources. Apart from wind speed and air temperature, other significant meteorological parameters which determined the variability of F− turned out to be air humidity and precipitation volume. Aerosols were washed out effectively, even with small precipitation (h = 4 mm), and if a dry period lasted for several days, their concentrations grew rapidly to over 30.0 ng · m−3.

“…In autumn, the BPA formed in combustion processes (involving plastic debris) undergoes occlusion onto soot and carbon particles, and can thus be transported via the atmosphere and deposited further away from the coastal zone (Lewandowska et al, 2010). Sidhu et al (2005) reported significant emissions of BPA from uncontrolled burning of domestic waste.…”
