Anotace
The potential of passive air sampling (PAS) devices to assess the influence of local pollution sources on the quality of surrounding environment was recently investigated as well as their sensitivity to the seasonal variations in the ambient air concentrations of POPs. Following the series of experiments focused on their feasibility in the long-term measurements, and influence of various meteorological conditions on their performance, PAS were employed in several monitoring programs. Monitoring network in the Czech Republic (MONET) was established in 2004, and included industrial, agricultural, urban, rural, and background sites. It was further extended in 2006 to cover the countries of the Central and Eastern Europe with the general lack of information on the ambient air pollution.
