Abstract
Atmospheric particulate matter was studied by nuclear gamma resonance spectroscopy to determine the valence and chemical composition of iron aerosols. The method allows of source identification of iron aerosols; particularly soil-derived iron aerosols are characterized against iron coming from anthropic sources.
