Badanie zależności między właściwym przewodnictwem elektrycznym opadu a temperaturą opadu

Abstract

The quality of rainfall is determined by many parameters. Generally, these parameters can be divided into four groups. To the first group we can include parameters associated to antropogenic activity. The parameters of second group are connected to meteorological conditions. In the third group there are parameters related to physical properties such as adsorption and absorption of gases (ions) on the surface of rain drops (what influence surface tension and, in consequence, dimensions of drops), rainfall and air temperature, degree of dissociation, ionic mobility. In the last group there are parameters related to natural processes e.g. volcano eruption and carbon dioxide concentration produced in respiration process. The aim of presented research was investigation of dependence between electrical conductivity and temperature of rainfall water. Results point on fact that increase of rainfall temperature cause increase of rainfall water conductivity. Decrease of rainfall water temperature is associated with decrease of its electrical conductivity.
