    • Aerosol samples were collected at an altitude of 3678 m on Mt Kenya in August 2001. A virtual impactor was used to collect particles in fine (aerodynamic diameter, da < 2.5 µm) and coarse (2.5 µm < da < 10 µm) size fractions. The samples were analyzed for particulate mass (PM), black carbon (BC) and 15 elements. The PM concentrations varied in the ranges 3.3 ± 1.1-7.8 ± 2.5 µg m-3 (in fine fraction) and 3.7 ± 1.2-9.6 ± 3.0 µg m-3 (in coarse fraction). The fine fraction was dominated by high concentrations of BC, S and K due to particles formed during biomass burning and sulfate particles from secondary processes in the atmosphere. The coarse fraction was dominated by high concentrations of Si, S, Cl, K, Ca and Fe indicative of the presence of soil dust particles. This was further verified by enrichment factors (EFs) calculated using the elemental content of the average crustal rock. Chemical mass balance (CMB) calculations indicated that the PM was largely attributable to biomass burning, mineral dust and sulfate, while contributions from anthropogenic sources were small. Source apportionment of elemental concentrations compared well with that of an earlier study on the southwestern slope of Mt Kenya, while PM and sulfate concentrations were comparable with those observed at high-altitude sites in North America and Europe. The observed concentrations were 5-50 times lower than those of urban Kenya.
