Titel
Scavenging of trace substances by clouds and precipitation
Abstract
Several German and Dutch groups have joined forces to launch a field program to study in- and below-cloud scavenging of trace substances. This program, dubbed ALSDAN, the German acronym for "Scavenging of Soluble Trance Substances by Precipitation" began its measurements in Spring 1985 and is still continuing. In this paper we present the design of our field experiment and give a brief description of the methods and techniques utilized to measure the trace substances in air and in cloud- and rain-water during a precipitation event. To illustrate the results, the data from a single event on 10 May 1985 are briefly discussed. (IFU)
