Santamaria, M. Fernández, J. Mendez, M. Bomboi] Summary: The size distribution of six metals (Cd, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni and Pb) present in the atmosphere of Madrid was determined in the airborne particulate matter. Samples were collected in an area located in the University Campus in Madrid. Twenty-one samplings were carried out in two different periods: summer 1986 and autumn — winter 1986-87. AAS was employed in the analysis. The particle size distribution of the elements was bimodal. The most toxic metal studied (Cd, Ni and Pb) have extremely high proportions in the smallest particle size range, which can easily enter the respiratory tract lodging in the alveoli. For the metals the enrichment factors based on soil proportions are calculated on each stage. The values are higher for lead, cadmium and nickel, tending to vary from stage to stage, suggesting significant pollution sources. Springer-Verlag, 1990 Santamaria J.
