SYGNAL COMPONENTS OF ATMOSPHERIC SUSPENDED MATTERS. PART I. PARTICLES OF BIOLOGICAL ORIGIN
Abstract
The work shows the results of the research of atmospheric suspended particles that were found in the snow of towns of the Far East of Russian Federation in 2010-2013. Suspended particles of different sizes of the biological origin were revealed, described and identified. It was found out that according to the domination in the samples taken from different towns located in the south of the Far East, organic particles form the following row: plant ground detritus (the fragments of leaves and grass), animal dander, tiny insects and the fragments of their bodies, microorganisms of air plankton, unidentified biological rubbish. In the samples taken from the towns located on the banks of some ponds there are specific components: the fragments of weeds and mollusk shells, sea invertebrates (quills of sea hedgehogs and parts of arthropods carapace). It was shown that if in the majority of towns of the Far East (Vladivostok, Khabarovsk, Blagoveshchensk, Ussuriysk) the part of the particles of the biological origin taken in winter is no more than 10%, whereas in Birobidzhan and in the nature reserve Bastak it was about 20%.
