Abstract
⺠Urban ridge development of Manizales offers conditions for air pollution studies. ⺠Acid rain was evenly distributed in the city with a mean VWM pH value of 4.9 units. ⺠Scavenging rates of sulfates in PM10 increased with increasing rain intensity. ⺠Sulfates were the predominant ion in rain reflecting a predominance of SO2 emissions. ⺠Vehicular and volcanic emissions could contribute to high levels of sulfates in rain.
