Abstract

Numerical investigations of the process of condensation of deleterious atmospheric impurities on the surface of near‐ground plants under the conditions of natural convective flows have been carried out. The influence of the latter near the surface of phytocenosis elements on the intensity of the process of condensation has been evaluated.
