Concentrations of SO 4 2− , Al, V and Mn were determined in airborne particles during July-August 1981 at five sites in New York State: for 6-h intervals at Mayville, Brewerton and Whiteface Mountain and for 24-h intervals at Oneonta and West Haverstraw. Episodic high [SO 4 2− ] were observed during 18–21 and 24–26 July and 1–4 August. Air trajectories showed that during the 18–21 July and 1–4 August episodes peak [SO 4 2− ] coincided with slow-moving air masses which had spent 1 or more days in the midwestern states of Indiana, Michigan, Ohio or Pennsylvania prior to entering New York. During the episodes [SO 4 2− ] decreased from west to east. No significant local sources of SO 4 2− exist at the 6-h sites. All these lines of evidence together show that during these episodes SO 4 2− were transported from the industrial Midwest. During the 24–26 July episode, peak [SO 4 2− ] at Mayville coincided with air masses entering the state from Ohio, but at Brewerton and Whiteface Mountain the highest [SO 4 2− ] occurred when air masses came from metropolitan New York City and the mid-Atlantic states. The average [SO 4 2− ] at Mayville were 2-fold higher than at Brewerton and Whiteface Mountain. The average manganese/vanadium ratio (Mn/V) in aerosols from the Midwest (1–10) has been suggested to be ~ 10 times that in the Northeast ( 4 2− ] were due to transport from the Midwest. On 25–26 July the average Mn/V was high at Mayville (2.8) but low at Brewerton (0.29) and Whiteface Mountain ( |
