Popis: Total Atmospheric Deposition (TAD), Wet Atmospheric Deposition (WAD) and Dry Atmospheric Deposition (DAD) were all measured within an urban residential area in Nantes (France) over a 9-month period (27 February - 10 December 2014). The objective of this study was to compare 2 methods for measuring dry and wet atmospheric depositions in the urban environment, namely DAD and WAD (direct method)/TAD and WAD (indirect method). Trace metals (As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pt and V) were used to carry out this comparison. TAD was collected with two open polyethylene containers (72×54×21cm), while WAD was collected by means of an automated rainwater collector and DAD was determined from both air measurements (recorded by an air sampler) and 7Be deposition velocities. This comparison showed a significant difference between the two methods. Dry and wet fluxes varied widely from one month to the next. Zn and Cu were the most abundant elements in both dry and wet depositions. The mean contribution of DAD to the total atmospheric deposition during this 9-month study was significant for Zn, Cu and V (about 25%) as well as for Pb (approx. 60%). For this relatively unpolluted urban residential catchment, the contribution of atmospheric deposition to global load at the catchment outlet was low, between 10% and 20% for Zn, Cu, V and Pb, 25% for Cr and about 30% for Ni. For other urban sites exhibiting high atmospheric pollution however, the atmospheric contribution to the global pollution load could be much greater. An accurate estimation of DAD thus proves critical.; Le dépôt atmosphérique total, le dépôt sec et le dépôt humide ont été mesurés dans un environnement urbain, à Nantes (France) pendant 9 mois (27 Février - 10 Décembre 2014). L'objectif de l'étude était de comparer 2 méthodes de mesure du dépôt sec et du dépôt humide. Les métaux trace (As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pt et V) ont été utilisés pour effectuer la comparaison. Une différence significative apparaît entre les 2 méthodes.
