The use of multi-criteria method in the process of threat assessment to the environment

Abstract Measurements of the content of trace elements, including toxic and carcinogenic metals, in various fractions of particulate matter PM are an important element of environmental monitoring and research involving their impact on human health. The article presents the measurement results of atm...
