BIOMAGENTIC MONITORING OF AIR POLLUTION USING DUST PARTICLES OF URBAN TREE LEAVES AT UPPER EGYPT
Six common tree species were used to check their suitability to use as magnetic biomonitors for particulate air pollution. The morphology and chemical composition of their leaf dust were identified using SEM/EDX. The results showed that the shape of particles are sphers, ovoid, irregular or grouped into aggregates; they were well within the size range of urban dust, especially hazardous ... Read more
