摘要

湖泊沉积物和湿地泥炭提供了人类对自然生态系统投入变化的宝贵档案。偏远山区湖泊的沉积物特别有用，因为这些环境中的污染物完全来自大气沉积。这项研究首次展示了莱索托污染的历史记录，莱索托是非洲南部一个重要的水文地区，南非豪登省/普马兰加省城市-工业综合体用水的35%用于出口。

A summary of the paper “Natural archives of long-range transported contamination at the remote lake Letšeng-la Letsie, Maloti Mountains, Lesotho”

Lake sediments and wetland peats provide valuable archives of changes in anthropogenic inputs into natural ecosystems. Sediments of remote mountain lakes are particularly useful because contaminants in these settings are solely derived from atmospheric deposition. This study presents the first historical record of contamination for Lesotho, a hydrologically important region in southern Africa, exporting about 35% of the water used in the Gauteng/Mpumalanga urban-industrial complex in South Africa.

期刊介绍： Clean Air Journal is the official publication of the National Association for Clean Air, a not-for-profit organisation. Clean Air Journal is a peer-reviewed journal for those interested in air quality, air quality management, and the impacts of air pollution relevant to Africa. The focus of the journal includes, but is not limited to: Impacts of human activities and natural processes on ambient air quality Air quality and climate change linkages Air pollution mitigation technologies and applications Matters of public policy regarding air quality management Measurement and analysis of ambient and indoor air pollution Atmospheric modelling application and development Atmospheric emissions Other topics on atmospheric physics or chemistry with particular relevance to Africa The scope of the journal is broad, but the core theme of the journal is air quality in Africa.
