[en] Rainfall at two stations in the Shephela (Israel Coastal Plain) was analyzed for ²¹⁰Pb during the winter of 1974-75. The highest concentrations of ²¹⁰Pb were found in samples collected early in the rainy season. It seemed that there was a small, but significant difference between the two stations. The total activity at the Bet-Dagan station (near Tel-Aviv) and generally also the activities in the individual samples collected at this station were lower than the respective activities at the Gan-Shomron station (60 kms to the north)
