Description
A new method for detecting and quantifying diffuse contamination at the continental to regional scale is based on the, analysis of cumulative,distribution functions (CDFs). It uses cumulative probability (CP) plots for spatially representative data sets, preferably containing >1000 determinations. Simulations demonstrate how different types of contamination influence elemental CDFs of different sample media. It is found that diffuse contamination is characterized by a distinctive shift of the...[Show more]
