Abstract

A survey of heavy metals in rainfall at this location was reported earlier. The salient features of the results of that study were that Ca and Mg were the most prevalent elements and were strongly correlated while the concentrations and absolute amounts of Zn, Fe, and P were small and not well correlated. The total amount of Cd found was surprisingly large but was poorly correlated with anything else. The present study is a partial repetition of the earlier one over the time interval March through October 1983, and included measurements of the pH and specific elements. Special attention has been paid to detection limits in order to identify which elements were regularly below the detection limits.
