Evaluating the Rate of Atmospheric Dust Deposition in Isfahan Province

Abstract: The present study investigates seasonal and spatial variations in atmospheric dust deposition rate (DDR) and the concentration of dust-borne heavy metals in the eastern part of Isfahan as well as Segzi plain located in the central part of Iran. Dust samples were collected from nine different sites on a monthly basis from December 2016 to September 2017. The total concentrations of Pb and Zn were measured. The lowest value of DDR was observed in the winter due to low amount of precipitation, and the highest val… Show more

“…For example, 'Woodii' gave high amounts of deposited dust in every investigated time, which may have been because its area is windy and located next to the Danube, which is surrounded by heavy traffic. This environmental exposure can significantly influence the dust deposit of those trees [16,21,30].…”
