Three typical episodes of polluting fog are analyzed in terms of ionic concentration and their possible sources. It is found that the concentration of various ions in fog water is much higher than those in rainwater. Fog not only blocks visual range but contains liquid particles that result in high degree of pollution and are very harmful to human health. SO4= is the anion with the highest concentration in fog water, followed by NO3-. For the cation, Ca++ and NH4+ are the highest in concentration. It is then known that rainwater is more acidic than fog water, indicating that ionic concentration of fog water is much higher than that of rainwater, but there are much more buffering materials in fog water, like NH4+ and Ca++. There is significant enrichment of Ca++, SO4=, and Mg++ in fog water. In the Guangzhou area, fog water from polluting fog is mainly influenced continental environment and human activity. The episodes of serious fog pollution during the time have immediate relationships with the presence of abundant water vapor and large amount of polluting aerosol particles.展开更多

All samples are splash-form tektites and have SiO2 contents ranging from 73.1wt% to 76.0wt% (74.6wt% on average). The chemical compositions, except Cr and Ni, of tektites from different areas, are similar. Guangdong tektite shows enrichments of Ni and Cr contents by a factor of 3, and has slightly higher MgO and FeO than Hainan and Guilin tektites. It indicates that the tektites were formed by mixing several target rocks. The major and trace element concentrations of southern China tektites closely resemble previously reported data for average splash-form and Muong Nong-type indochinites, indicating that they have the same source. (La/Lu)CI (7.99), Zr/Hf (35.45 on average), Ba/Rb (3.59 on average), and the rare earth element (REE) contents of tektites are similar to those of typical post Archean upper crustal rocks. This study suggests that the best fit for the target source of southern China tektites could be a combination of 41% shale, 2% sandstone, 20% greywacke, and 37% quartzite.展开更多
