Abstract
The use of laser-induced breakdown spectrometry (LIES) for elemental determ ination and detection in urban health is reviewed. It highlights the unique use of LIES in fiber-based optics, in process control, and for field instr umentation. Selected applications confirm that LIES could be the technique of choice for many applications in urban health. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
