Characterization of Heavy Metals Atmospheric Deposition for Assessment of Environmental Quality in Urban and Surrounding Areas

Abstract:

The atmospheric deposition of Cu, Cd and Pb in urban and surrounding areas was investigated by using mosses as bioindicators. A total of 92 moss samples were collected from central and south-west parts of Romania. The content of Cu, Cd and Pb was determined by graphite furnace/flame atomic absorption spectrometry. Median values for Cu (8.217 mg/kg dw), Cd (1.299 mg/kg dw) and Pb (29.844 mg/kg dw) are high compared to other European countries. The evaluation of the sampling sites contamination was made using the contamination factor. Sites with a severe contamination with Cd and Pb were identified.
