Abstract
SummaryThe deposition of S in rainwater was measured at ten locations in central Kenya, monthly for 1 year (1977–8). Amounts deposited ranged from 1·58 to 3·81 (mean 2·47) kg S/ha. Concentrations ranged from 0·10 to 0·17 (mean 0·12) mg S/l rainwater. The washout factor (w) was 200 and the vertical deposition velocity (Vg) for dry deposition was 0·31 cm/sec. Two locations were affected by local anthropogenic emissions. The agricultural significance of these results is briefly discussed.
