Biological Monitoring Using Lichens as a Source of Information About Contamination of Mountain with Heavy Metals

نویسندگان

چکیده

Abstract The aim of this study was passive biomonitoring the mountains southern Poland. Lichens Hypogymnia physodes were used for study. Concentrations heavy metals Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb determined in these lichens. concentrations measured by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). analysis lichen thallus allowed to determine places with highest lowest contamination a given metal area. It shown that area Great Czantoria Big Soszow is most contaminated among investigated areas. shows transport analytes wind from distant emission sources, low-level (coal burning), traffic have greatest influence on level atmospheric aerosol pollution
