Abstract

The work presents the results of a study of atmospheric air pollution with heavy metals in a small mining town in the Kemerovo region. The assessment was carried out using the active biomonitoring method. The epiphytic moss Pylaisiella polyantha served as a bioindicator. The content of chemical elements was determined using the neutron activation method. Elements and areas of the city were identified for which high levels of concentrations values were obtained relative to background.
