Air pollution is monitored mainly in urban or industrial areas, even if it is known that in rural ones, low emission can significantly worsen air quality. Hence, cheap and easily accessible methods of monitoring are needed. Recently, spider webs biomonitoring is getting popular, however, there is no information about its comparison with active methods. In this study, PTEs accumulated on spider webs were compared with results from continuous particulate monitor (CPM). Generally, higher potentially toxic elements concentrations were noted in spider web, with exception in the case of Zn. Zn may be present rather in smaller fractions, hence it needs more time for accumulation on spider web while it is easily collected by CPM. Higher concentrations of other elements on spider webs may result from formation of aggregates which could not be reported in PM₁₀ sampling (CPM). What is more, the order of the most and the least accumulated elements were similar and the percentage share of studied elements was coherent in most cases, proving that this new tool prospers to become commonly used in biomonitoring. Additionally, to identify possible sources of pollution air backward trajectories and trajectory frequencies for Kotórz were prepared based on the HYSPLIT model.

基于蜘蛛网和并行连续颗粒物监测的空气污染研究——结合源识别的比较研究

空气污染主要在城市或工业区进行监测，即使在农村地区，低排放会显着恶化空气质量。因此，需要廉价且容易获得的监测方法。最近，蜘蛛网生物监测越来越流行，然而，没有关于它与主动方法比较的信息。在这项研究中，将蜘蛛网上积累的 PTE 与连续颗粒监测 (CPM) 的结果进行了比较。一般来说，蜘蛛网中的潜在有毒元素浓度较高，但锌除外。Zn 可能以较小的部分存在，因此它需要更多的时间在蜘蛛网上积累，而 CPM 很容易收集。蜘蛛网上的其他元素浓度较高可能是由于形成了无法在 PM 中报告的聚集体_{10 个}采样 (CPM)。更重要的是，在大多数情况下，累积元素最多和最少的顺序相似，研究元素的百分比份额是一致的，证明这种新工具在生物监测中得到广泛应用。此外，为了识别可能的污染空气源，基于 HYSPLIT 模型准备了 Kotórz 的后向轨迹和轨迹频率。
