Acidity Of Rain And Relationship With the Atmospheric Conditions Prevailing In the Town of The Candelaria - Bogotá D.C.
This project was developed in order to establish the facts about the acidity of rain in the town of La Candelaria and to study further the relationship of this phenomenon with the atmospheric conditions prevailing in this sector of the city of Bogota D.C. At the start of the study it was necessary to design and install a network of sampling stations at strategic sites in the locality; selected according to specific criteria. The taking and handling of the samples, in the morning and at the end of the afternoon, followed the previously developed protocols to identify the time of harvesting rainwater and the methodology for laboratory analysis. In all cases the pH value was taken on-site and the analysis of nitrates and sulfates of each sample were conducted in the Laboratory of Environmental Engineering at La Salle University. The process of collecting and analyzing samples was accompanied by permanent monitoring of the atmospheric conditions prevailing in the locality. As a result of the investigation we were able to establish the level of acidity of rainfall and its temporary space in the town of La Candelaria. The results were used to determine further the close relationship between weather conditions and acid precipitation in this area of the city.
