Yellow snow explored in Russian region

24 Mar, 11:23 PM

Scholars of an environmental research center are studying the yellow snow that covered a city in the Russian Urals region in mid March.

“The chemical analysis shows high concentration of manganese, nickel and iron, and occasional concentration of chrome, zinc, copper, lead, and cadmium,” the report issued by the Center for Ecological Monitoring and Control, and quoted by Interfax Tuesday says.

Such pollution is typical of metal industries' waste, the report adds.

At the same time, the yellow snow was brought to the Urals by a warm atmosphere front from over the Caspian Sea, which allows to accept a more cheerful explanation. The yellow color could appear after particles of soil from the Caspian Lowlands, not covered in snow at the time, were raised by an air current and got mixed with the snow.

However, it is also very likely that on its way from the Caspian Sea to the Urals, the snow took in toxic waste from industries located in Chelyabinsk and Bashkortostan.
