Both passive and active cloud collectors have been employed. A mean concentration of formaldehyde of 197 müg/l has been found in cloud water while on the average only 100 müg/l were observed in rain water. The average phenol concentration was 3.5 müg/l, but only 1.6 müg/l in rain water. Finally, the mean concentration of PAHs (only determined in cloud water) amounts to 0.37 müg/l. Th PAH profile is similar to that observed for rain water sampled in Hannover (Germany).enaldehydeanalysisanalyticalaromaticchemistrychromatographycloudenvironmentalgashigh performancehydrocarbonliquidmass spectrometrymeteorologyorganicorganic compoundphenolpollutantpolycyclicprecipitationrainwaterwater615610620628journal article
