“…These issues play an important role in recent discussions on environmental monitoring within the framework of the United Nation Economic Commission for Europe International Cooperative Programme on Effects of Air Pollution on Natural Vegetation and Crops and in France monitoring programs (Galsomiès et al 1996). As a valuable tool of identifying sources of atmospheric metal deposition, biomonitoring of heavy metals is applied in many countries (Kuik and Woterbeek 1995;Viskari et al 1997;Genoni et al 2000;Figueira et al 2002;Frontasyeva et al 2004;Zechmeister et al 2004Zechmeister et al , 2005Ermakova et al 2004;Liiv and Kaasik 2004;Nikodemus et al 2004;Tremper et al 2004;Lucaciu et al 2004;Suchara and Sucharova 2004;Szczepaniak et al 2006), and France participated to samplings in 2000 2006. The choice of the mainly used moss species Hylocomium splendens and Pleurozium schreberi is based on the experience of the Nordic countries (Wolterbeek et al 1995;Steinnes 2008).…”

An active biomonitoring of the heavy metals pollution experiment was undertaken by means of the bryophyte species Scleropodium purum transplanted at three different sites exposed to rural, traffic, or industrial influences. Concentrations of about 40 elements in S. purum were determined by instrumental neutron activation analysis and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Accumulation rates of heavy metals were determined in the three sites. These accumulation rates in polluted sites were matched together and also to those recorded at the rural site. The changes of the accumulation rate of heavy metals in S. purum versus their concentrations in PM(10) particles simultaneously collected above show some different accumulation properties of S. purum according to elements and sites. S. purum has a weak efficiency in the three sites to accumulate elements like V, Cr, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Sb, and Pb originating from atmospheric hot sources generally enriched in particulates matter (PM(10)), whereas it is particularly high for Br, Th, and Rb. For other elements, Co, La, Ce, and Hf, and rare earth elements, Fe, Sr, Nb, Ti, Al, and Sc, the collection efficiency by S. purum is intermediate. In the industrial site Dunkerque, a magnification of the collection efficiency by S. purum for elements originating from steel and aluminum productions and petroleum refinement suggests that these metals could be enriched in coarse particles with a better accumulation by the bryophyte with respect to PM10.

“…The primary purpose of the present work was to assess the general situation regarding atmospheric metal pollution in the Republic of Macedonia and to report these results to the European Atlas of Heavy Metal Atmospheric Deposition issues by UNECE ICP Vegetation (from http:// icpvegetation.ceh.ac.uk; Buse et al 2003). Prior to this work the moss technique had been successfully used by the authors in similar studies in Russia (Frontasyeva et al 2004a;Ermakova et al 2004) and in some other Balkan countries: Romania (Cucu-Man et al 2004), Bulgaria (Stamenov et al 2002), and Northern Serbia and Bosnia (Frontasyeva et al 2004b). …”

For the first time the atmospheric deposition of trace metals was studied over the entire territory of the Republic of Macedonia. Samples of the terrestrial mosses Hypnum cupressiforme, Camptothecium lutescens, and Homalothecium sericeum were collected in September-October 2002 at 73 sites evenly distributed over the country, and a total of 43 elements were determined by instrumental neutron activation analysis and atomic absorption spectrometry. Principal component factor analysis was used to identify the most polluted areas and characterize different pollution sources. The most important sources of trace metal deposition are ferrous and non-ferrous smelters, oil refineries, fertilizer production plants, and central heating stations. Four areas appear to be particularly exposed to metal pollution: Veles, Skopje, Tetovo, and Kavadarci-Negotino, whereas the predominantly agricultural regions in the south, southwest, and southeast show levels closer to European median values for most elements of mainly pollution origin.

“…Важно также иметь в виду следующее: положитель-ные значения КФН, которых большинство, сви-детельствуют о том, что химические элемен-ты накапливаются во мхах, а отрицательные, которых меньшинство, -об их вымывании из мхов. Интерпретация геохимических ассоциа-ций, которая и дает возможность предположить факторы, причины их формирования, основы-вается на: а) эмпирических данных, получае-мых «в поле» (при этом важную роль играет полевой опыт исследователя); б) сведениях по феноменологии геохимии и биогеохимии хи-мических элементов, которые применительно к целям настоящего исследования можно найти в [2,[5][6][7]; б) на сведениях и выводах, полученных в аналогичных исследованиях -индикационно брио геохимических с привлечением факторно-го анализа и других геостатистических мето-дах, которые были проведены в иных регионах нами и другими авторами [4,9,11,13,14,17].

-mail: yulian.tyutyunnik@gmail.com Regional atmogeochemical fields in the territory of Kiev and Zhitomir Regions (Ukraine) were assessed using briogeochemical indication (elemental analysis of mosses Pleurozium schreberi and Brachythecium oedipodium in the present case). The data were treated using factor analysis to draw conclusion about the causes of formation of these fields under different environmental and anthropogenic conditions. The main causes are: (I) local (test plot-confined and regional) pollution of surface air with large-particle aerosols formed by disintegration of natural and anthropogenic matter; (II) local pollution of surface air with small-particle aerosols formed by condensation; (III) trans-border transfer of polluted air from the west and, probably the north; (IV) anthropogenic acidification and redox and pH misbalance in precipitates; and (V) biological assimilation of chemical elements by mosses. Air pollution factors specific for the regions under assessment are titan ore mining and processing in Zhitomir Region and, probably, potassium-containing aerosol transfer from halurgy plants in Belarus.
