Insights into bulk stable isotope alteration during sediment redistribution to edge-of-field: impact on sediment source apportionment

, 2021
Organic tracers (bulk δ13C and δ15N) are being increasingly used in sediment/particulate organic carbon source apportionment studies at the catchment scale to support sustainable land management decisions.

Vehicular influence on atmospheric concentrations and source apportionment of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in some major cities in three regions of Ghana using epiphytic lichens

Toxicology Reports, 2022
The present study employed epiphytic lichens as biomonitor and passive air sampler for the assessment of fifteen (15) atmospheric polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in some major cities in three regions of Ghana.

Atmospheric CO₂ dynamics in a coastal megacity: spatiotemporal patterns, sea–land breeze impacts, and anthropogenic–biogenic emission partitioning [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics
Attributing observed carbon dioxide (CO2) to fossil-fuel emissions versus biogenic fluxes is essential for assessing urban mitigation, but in coastal megacities it is complicated by anthropogenic–biogenic coupling and sea–land breeze (SLB) circulation ...

Source Apportionment of Atmospheric Trace Element Deposition

Environmental Engineering Science, 2008
Samples of lichen species (Xanthoria parietina) collected from Aegean Region of Turkey were analyzed by instrumental neutron activation analysis to determine the concentrations of 31 elements. The elements (Au, Rb, Zn, Hg, Sb, Cd, As, Cl, Br, and Se) showed enrichment with respect to the crustal composition.

Incorporating bioaccessibility and source apportionment into human health risk assessment of heavy metals in urban dust of Xiamen, China

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
Heavy metals in urban dust could pose noticeable human health risks, but there are few studies focusing on comprehensive human health risk assessment with the incorporation of both bioaccessibility and source apportionment in urban dust.

Modeling and source apportionment of diesel particulate matter [PDF]

Environment International, 2008
The fine and ultra fine sizes of diesel particulate matter (DPM) are of greatest health concern. The composition of these primary and secondary fine and ultra fine particles is principally elemental carbon (EC) with adsorbed organic compounds, sulfate, nitrate, ammonia, metals, and other trace elements.

PM2.5 Source apportionment and health effects in urban districts of Hanoi: inter-comparison of source apportionment results

, 2023
Abstract Comparison results obtained by different models with different physical assumptions and constraints for source apportionment is important for better understanding the sources of the pollutants. Source apportionment of PM2.5 measured at three sites located in inner urban districts of Hanoi was performed using two receptor models, UNMIX ...

Field comparison of dual- and single-spot Aethalometers: equivalent black carbon, light absorption, Ångström exponent and secondary brown carbon estimations [PDF]

Atmospheric Measurement Techniques
The Aethalometer is a widely used instrument for black carbon (BC) mass concentration and light absorption coefficient (babs) measurements around the world. However, field intercomparison of the two popular models, dual-spot (AE33) and single-spot (AE31)
