The article presents the results of studies carried out within passive biomonitoring, including the assessment of deposition of heavy metals (Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, Hg and Pb), which can be found in the local atmospheric aerosol due to communication traffic in A4 motorway near Proszkow (Opole Province). Pleurozium schreberi moss samples collected 120 m away from the motorway along the distance of 3000 m, were used in the study. Wind directions frequency in the area were taken into consideration when selecting the measurement points. Heavy metals were determined with the use of flame atomic absorption spectrometry (F-AAS). The study results indicate that communication traffic in A4 motorway influences high content of the selected analytes in its vicinity; the pollution is carried in wind direction along certain distance.

W pracy przedstawiono wyniki badań, przeprowadzonych w ramach biomonitoringu pasywnego, polegających na ocenie depozycji metali ciężkich (Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, Hg i Pb), wzbogacających lokalnie aerozol atmosferyczny w skutek ruchu komunikacyjnego na autostradzie A4 w pobliżu miejscowości Prószków (województwo opolskie). Do badań wykorzystano próbki mchów Pleurozium schreberi, które pobrano w pobliżu autostrady na dystansie 3000 m i w odległości od niej do 120 metrów. Przy wyborze punktów pomiarowych uwzględniono częstotliwość kierunku wiatru na tym terenie. Metale ciężkie oznaczono metodą absorpcyjnej spektometrii atomowej ze wzbudzaniem w płomieniu (F-AAS). Wyniki badań wskazują na to, iż ruch komunikacyjny na autostradzie A4 wpływa na wysoką zawartość wybranych analitów w najbliższym jej otoczeniu, przy czym zanieczyszczenia są przenoszone zgodnie z kierunkiem wiatru również na dalsze odległości.

The aim of this study was passive biomonitoring of the mountains of southern Poland. Lichens Hypogymnia physodes were used for the study. Concentrations of the heavy metals Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb were determined in these lichens. The concentrations were measured by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). The analysis of the concentrations of the determined heavy metals in the lichen thallus allowed to determine the places with the highest and the lowest contamination with a given heavy metal in the study area. It was shown that the area of Great Czantoria and Big Soszow is the most contaminated with heavy metals among the investigated areas. The study shows that the transport of analytes with the wind from distant emission sources, low-level emission (coal burning), and traffic have the greatest influence on the level of atmospheric aerosol pollution in the study area.

In the year 2016, passive biomonitoring studies were conducted in the forest areas of southern and north-eastern Poland: the Karkonosze Mountains (Kark), the Beskidy Mountains (Beskid), Borecka Forest (P. Bor), Knyszynska Forest (P. Kny), and Białowieza Forest (P. Bia). This study used bark from the tree, Betula pendula Roth. Samples were collected in spring (Sp), summer (Su), and autumn (Au). Concentrations of Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb were determined for the samples using the atomic absorption spectrometry method with flame excitation (F-AAS). Based on the obtained results, the studied areas were ranked according to level of heavy-metal deposition: forests of southern Poland > forests of north-eastern Poland. Some seasonal changes in the concentrations of metals accumulated in bark were also indicated, which is directly related to their changing concentrations in the air during the calendar year, for instance, the winter heating season produces higher concentrations of heavy metals in the bark samples taken in spring. When deciding to do biomonitoring studies using bark, but also other biological materials, it is necessary to take into account the period in which the conducted research is done and the time when the samples are taken for analysis, because this will have a significant impact on the obtained results.

The aim of the carried out research was passive and active biomonitoring of woodlands in the Opole province. Pleurozium schreberi mosses were used during the research, in which the following heavy metals concentrations were determined: Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb. Concentrations were determined with absorption atomic spectrometry (AAS). On the basis of the carried out research, concentrations of heavy metals in moss samples used in the passive and active biomonitoring methods were compared. The obtained results indicate that Pleurozium schreberi mosses can be successfully used in both passive and active biomonitoring, however, these methods should not be used interchangeably in a defined study area. On the basis of carried out research it was determined that the applied biomonitoring methods can be supplementary.

The aim of the study was to assess the contamination of selected heavy metals in cultivated soils of the Odra river floodplain. The heavy metals Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn, Ni, Cd and Pb were determined in soil samples collected in the autumn of 2020 - after the vegetation period of plants from designated measurement points. Concentrations of the analytes were measured using an atomic absorption spectrometer (F-ASA). A comparison was made between concentrations of heavy metals in soil samples collected from areas flooded in 1997 and from areas flooded as a result of rainfall, snowmelt and winter floods. The results of the studies were compared with the data for soils taken from non-flooded areas. The studies confirmed enrichment of soils subjected to precipitation, snowmelt and winter floods in heavy metals. Also samples taken from two measurement points located on floodplains of the Odra river were characterised by high concentrations of Zn, Cd and Pb.

The aim of biomonitoring is assessment of environment condition. Biomonitoring studies with the use of mosses focus mainly on analytes accumulation and determining elements’ concentrations in the study area. It is often forgotten that a bioindicator should be alive during biomonitoring studies (which can be determined by, e.g., analysis of chlorophyll content). The objective of the carried out research was an assessment of the influence of selected heavy metals concentration: Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb accumulated by Pleurozium schreberi mosses during 3-month exposition within active biomonitoring, on their vitality, assessed by an analysis of a and b chlorophyll concentrations. The studies were also carried out in laboratory conditions, where the content of the dyes was determined with the aid of a UV-Vis spectrophotometer, in mosses reacting with solutions of various concentrations of the analysed metals. The content of elements in mosses after exposition and in solutions prior and after sorption were determined with the use of atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) in a flame atomiser. After the carried out studies it was determined that mosses, during 12-week long exposition, accumulated heavy metals, which did not clearly influence the changes in chlorophyll content. The carried out studies prove that heavy metals are not the only and determining factor, which influences chlorophyll content in mosses as well as the bioindicator’s vitality in the conditions of environmental stress.

Celem badań była ocena zanieczyszczenia metalami ciężkimi (Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd i Pb) rumianku lekarskiego (Matricaria chamomilla L.) i babki lancetowatej (Plantago lanceolata L.). W ramach biomonitoringu pasywnego pobrano próbki roślin leczniczych oraz próbki gleby, na której rosły rośliny. Metale ciężkie oznaczono za pomocą absorpcyjnej spektrometrii atomowej (AAS). Na podstawie przeprowadzonych badań można stwierdzić, że zioła wykorzystane do badań różniły się pod względem stężeń metali ciężkich w zależności od miejsca ich pobierania. Wszystkie próbki ziół były zanieczyszczone wysokimi stężeniami manganu, żelaza oraz cynku. Badane próbki gleb z grupy B i C według rozporządzenia ministra środowiska nie przekroczyły maksymalnych dopuszczalnych stężeń poszczególnych metali ciężkich. Przeprowadzone badania biomonitoringowe wskazują na możliwość wykorzystania obu gatunków tych roślin leczniczych jako biowskaźniki do oceny stopnia zanieczyszczenia metalami ciężkimi środowiska przyrodniczego.

The aim of the study was to evaluate the heavy metal contamination (Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb) of Matricaria chamomilla L. and Plantago lanceolata L. Within passive biomonitoring, samples of medicinal plants and soil samples were taken. Heavy metals were determined using atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). On the basis of the conducted research it can be stated that the herbs used in the study differed in terms of concentrations of heavy metals, depending on the place of their collection. All herb samples were contaminated with high concentrations of manganese, iron and zinc. The tested soil samples from groups B and C according to the Regulation of the Minister of the Environment didn’t exceed the maximum permissible concentrations of individual heavy metals. The conducted biomonitoring studies indicate the possibility of using both species of these medicinal plants as bio-indicators to assess the level of heavy metals pollution in the natural environment.

The aim of the carried out research was to assess atmospheric aerosol pollution levels in the area of three apiaries located in the Opole Province and to analyse heavy metals pollution in bee honey and western honey bees. Pleurozium schreberi moss was used in analysing atmospheric aerosol pollution with the active biomonitoring method, whereas heavy metals levels were determined with flame atomic absorption spectrometry method (F-AAS). Relative Accumulation Factors (RAF) were used in determining increases of analytes concentrations in the moss samples. As a result of the carried out study, the following conclusions have been reached: mosses are good bioindicators of environment pollution thanks to their sorption qualities, similarly to honey bees, which are a bioindicator of environment pollution. According to the Commission Regulation of European Union of 2015 regarding the maximum levels of lead in certain foods (honey), it should not exceed 0.1 mg/kg. On the basis of the carried out study it can be stated that the concentration of this analyte in the analysed honey was below the limit of quantification of the applied analytical method.

The properties of particulate matter PM, including its impact on the environment and human health, depend mainly on the size (more precisely: size distribution) of the particles since the size is usually dependent on the processes/sources of the PM. This work presents the results of a one-year-long measurement campaign of PM. PALAS Fidas 200 from Airpointer air quality station was used. The PM was measured in Warsaw, Poland continuously from 1st May 2022 to 30th April 2023; size distribution was recorded with 120 s intervals and averaged in 3600 s periods. It was found, that the number and the mass size distribution varied depending on the averaging period (different hours of the day, different days of the week, and different months of the year). Additionally, the authors determined the periods of impact on selected sources (traffic emission, municipal emission, and industrial emission) on the number and mass size distributions of PM at the sampling site. Monitoring of number and mass size distributions of PM is a relatively easy and more cost-effective method than analysing the chemical composition of PM. Therefore, is crucial to develop a method of identifying sources of PM based on size distributions. It was found that such a method can be in the future as successful in source apportionment as in the analysis of chemical compositions.
