Overview

Analysis reveals elevated trace elements in aerosols from coal combustion and ship emissions, indicating significant environmental impacts.

Key Points

  • Trace elements in marine aerosols have shown significant seasonal variation, emphasizing the impact of anthropogenic sources.
  • During spring, coal combustion contributed up to 84.4% of vanadium and nickel in aerosols, highlighting pollution transport from land.
  • Marine aerosols demonstrated increased anthropogenic pollutant levels, particularly from shipping activities, during summer months.
  • Findings underline the need for targeted pollution control strategies to mitigate the impact of elevated trace elements on marine ecosystems.
