Özet

The main aim of this study was to present the effects of barbecue smoke on a small-scale environment, a national park under the influence of intense barbecue smoke, and to scientifically support the sustainable usage of the park. Twelve-weekly bulk deposition samples were collected directly at the barbecuing area, and the samples were analysed for 16 US EPA's priority PAH compounds and major ions. The mean concentrations of the individual PAHs in the bulk deposition samples ranged from 11.8 ng L-1 (Ane) to 1085 +/- 581 ng L-1 (IcdP). The most frequently observed PAH compounds in the bulk deposition samples were Np, Anp, Flr, Phe, An, Flu, BkF, BaP and IcdP. The mean total PAH deposition fluxes were determined as 3.6 +/- 5.6 mu g m(-2) day(-1). The chloride, potassium and the sulphate fluxes were determined as 145.2 +/- 267.8 mu g m(-2) day(-1), 182.9 +/- 291.9 mu g m(-2) day(-1), and 111.9 +/- 65.9 mu g m(-2) day(-1), respectively. Dominant ions in the bulk deposition samples were potassium ion, chloride and sulphate which addressed as the fingerprint of barbecue grilling.
