Simultaneous Measurements of PM2.5- and PM10-bound Benzo(a)pyrene in a Coastal Urban Atmosphere in Poland: Seasonality of Dry Deposition Fluxes and influence of Atmospheric Transpo... by Patrycja Siudek, Wiesława Ruczyńska

“…During the period from October to November, high Pb/Zn ratios in PM2.5 and PM10 were also observed, suggesting significant contribution of industrial emission (coal combustion) and local non-exhaust traffic emissions, including tyre abrasion in the case of Zn and the resuspension of road dust rich in Pb. The highest daily BaP deposition fluxes of 2652 ng m–2 (PM2.5) and 5561 ng m–2 (PM10) were reported in winter, while the lowest values of daily BaP deposition (2 ng m–2) were found during spring and summer measurements. …”
