Abstract

Aerosols samples in near-surface air of Granada (Spain) were collected on a weekly basis. The seasonal ²¹⁰Pb and ⁷Be concentrations were determined during the five-year period, from October 1993 to September 1997. The elements, despite their different origin and their different distribution throughout the atmosphere, present the same seasonal variation. There was a tendency for a maximum during the summer season and a minimum during fall and/or winter. In this work, the concentration of ⁷Be and ²¹⁰Pb and meteorological data have been used in order to determine the periods of the potential radioactive pollution. This study, also, shows that the deposition of ⁷Be occurs primarily by precipitation except during the investigation periods where precipitation was scarce and irregular.
