Abstract
A method for biomonitoring of airborne organic contaminants is applied to identify spatial and temporal differences in PAH-immissions within a partly industrialised small town. Kale ( Brassica oleracea) is used as a monitor-plant, its PAH contents indicating strongly varying immissions being the result of different emissions and differing climatic factors. Cluster analyses of PAH-profiles are applied successfully to classify immissions and to identify the extent to which different combustion sources contribute to the immissions found at a sampling-site.
