Airborne concentrations and dry deposition fluxes of particulate species to surrogate surfaces deployed in southern Lake Michigan

Article Abstract:

Dry deposition flux measurements to surrogate surfaces and airborne concentration measurements were performed to determine atmospheric inputs of pollutants to the Lake Michigan. Samples gathered in the summer reveal that the majority of the dry deposition mass flux consisted of low airborne concentrations of particles with diameters >8 micronm. The phenomenon, however, does not occur in January when particles with physical diameters of 4-8 micronm dominate both the airborne concentration and the flux.
