Coal Terminal in Urban Settlement Posyet (Primorsky Krai, Russia) Causes Micro-sized Pollution of the Atmosphere

The paper presents the results of a study of micro-sized pollution of the atmosphere of the urban settlement Posyet caused by a coal terminal. It was shown that PM10 particles (under 10 μm) in fractions from 21.94 to 45.5% were found at all 20 sampling points in Posyet. It can be noted that, regardl...
