Measurement of lead, cadmium, arsenic and mercury in precipitation events / M.C. Mehra. : En36-503/127E-PDF
"This study describes concentrations of lead, cadmium, arsenic and mercury in wet precipitation samples collected at Moncton, New Brunswick. The sampling and analyses were done in the period June through November 1981. The volume-weighted averages for Pb, Cd and As were found to be 5.28, 0.77 and 0.028 µg/L, respectively. Mercury, however, was not detected in the samples. The data show that with increasing Pb levels, Cd and As levels also increase, and that Pb levels remain roughly 7 and 188 times greater than those of Cd and As"--Abstract, p. v.
