Atmospheric aerosols were measured at Sevettijärvi in Finnish Lapland in 1992–1995. The variation of aerosol concentrations in different air masses has been examined. In polluted air from the Kola peninsula particle number concentrations were often > 10000 cm– 3. In marine and continental air mea...
