Abstract

This paper presents the results of determination of concentrations of chloride, sulfate, phosphate, am-monium, sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium ions along with total nitrogen, pH and electrolytic conductivity for precipitation collected in nonindustrialized regions near Gdansk (Poland). A station used for the collection of samples of precipitation consisted of two substations, one of which was located in a deforested area (clearing), while the second was situated in a spruce forest. The samples were collected over a period of one year, from March 2, 1996 to February 1, 1997. Concentrations of chloride, sulfate, phosphate, nitrate and ammonium ions and of total nitrogen were determined spectrophotometrically . Sodium, potassium and calcium ions were determined using flame photo-metry while magnesium ions were determined by atomic absorption spectroscopy. pH and electrolytic conduc-tivity of the samples were also measured.
