Topics discussed in this compilation include the characterization of heavy metals content in attic dust from copper ore and ferronickel smelter processing plants in Macedonia; dust control in the mining industry of Australia; the health and environmental effects of dust storms in the Arabian Peninsula; dust fallout and its potential hazard on public health in Kuwait; photochemical and climate implications of airborne dust and assessing the quality of the urban environment by the elemental concentrations of foliage dust. 410 0$aEnvironmental Health - Physical, Chemical and Biological Factors 606 $aDust 606 $aAir$xPollution 615 0$aDust. 615 0$aAir$xPollution. 676 $a620/.43 676 $a620/.43 701 $aWouters$b Laurent B$01861896 701 $aPauwels$b Michel$01861897 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910962332103321 996 $aDust$94468115 997 $aUNINA
