Abstract
⺠A Comprehensive study on atmospheric concentrations of crustal elements and anthropogenic trace metals over Bay of Bengal. ⺠Significantly high concentrations of trace metals are associated with atmospheric outflow from the Indo-Gangetic Plain. ⺠Temporal variability in Ca/Al and Fe/Al ratio suggests long-range transport of mineral dust from Thar Desert. ⺠Short residence time of trace metals in surface waters emphasizes the impact of anthropogenic sources.
