Firstly, dry deposition is measured both under and outside the canopy during several months. No clear differences are observed either in the amount or in the chemical composition of the particles collected under and outside the canopy. Secondly, the leaf morphology and anatomy as well as the aerosol deposited onto the leaf surfaces are studied by scanning electron microscopy. Cuticle thickness is measured and differences are observed between young and old leaves. The distribution of aerosol particles over leaf surface is also established. Finally, the possible incorporation into leaves of a radioactive aerosol released in an accidental situation is studied, by means of a sequential extraction procedure using water and an organic solvent. From the results it can be deduced that neither the abiotic layer nor the cuticle play any important role in the retention of caesium. The studied radionuclides are mainly found in particulate form, soluble in water, or incorporated into leaves.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rauret, G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Llauradó, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tent, J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rigol, A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Alegre, L H</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Utrillas, M J</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Deposition on holm oak leaf surfaces of accidentally released radionuclides</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Science of The Total Environment</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cuticle thickness</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm oak</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Leaf surface</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Radionuclide deposition</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Radionuclide incorporation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sequential extraction</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1994</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">157</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7-16</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The retention of aerosols by canopies of holm oak trees in a typical Mediterranean forest is studied.
