Popis: Trace elements in PM10 samples were studied at Elefsis city, a heavily industrialized area of Greece. Seasonal samplings were carried out from December 2015 to August 2017. Concentration levels of 18 metal (loid)s were measured by Inductively Coupled Plasma – Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). Al, Ba and Zn were the most abundant elements with mean concentrations ranging between 1000 and 22 000 ng m−3, Fe and Sr between 100 and 1000 ng m−3, while Cr, V, Mn, Pb, Cu, Ni, Ga, Rb were detected in traces (
