Özet
Air pollution, which has been increasing in recent years, has reached significant dimensions and has become one of the most important agenda topics of present day. Among air pollution components, heavy metals are of particular importance, since they are not easily decomposed, they tend to bioaccumulate, and some of them have toxic or carcinogenic effects even at low concentrations. Therefore, it is an extremely important subject to monitor the changes in heavy metal concentrations found in air. The most preferred method in determining the changes in heavy metal concentrations in the atmosphere is the use of biomonitors. From past to present, trees have been good biomonitors in determining the increase in heavy metal concentrations in the atmosphere. Particularly, with the help of the annual growth rings of trees, vital information can be obtained on the changes in heavy metal concentrations in air. In this …
