Correlations Between Atmospheric Depositions

This study examines atmospheric deposition measurements from various monitoring stations in Georgia, specifically focusing on GA-33 (Sapelo Island), GA-41, GA-09 (Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge), GA-20, and GA-99 (Chula). Data collected between January 2003 and September 2010 includes nitrate, sulfate, ammonium, and pH levels. Both natural sources (ocean spray, volcanic emissions, lightning) and human activities (fossil fuels, metal smelting, fertilizers) were identified as contributors to observed deposition trends. Pearson correlation coefficients were utilized to analyze relationships, particularly between GA-33 and GA-41.
