Abstract: The aerosol samples were collected in Hubei University during winter-spring time (from November 2006 to April 2007) and their elemental composition was obtained. The results show that the atmosphere aerosol pollution is light, and the aerosol elements mainly come from the crust element, representative artificial pollutant elements and the salts element in this area. Results of the factor load and correlation analysis show that atmosphere polluants are mostly from construction source, transportation source, and the dining source around the Hubei sci-tech education area.

Key words: Wuhan, aerosol, pollution source analysis, load factor analysis, correlation analysis
