Table 1 Net snow masses on the entire bottom cold plate and \({{\rm{NO}}}_{3}^{-}\), \({{\rm{SO}}}_{4}^{2-}\) and Al3+ concentrations in the water obtained by the melted snow for the different cases: (a) without the aluminum target and with the aluminum target located at the (b) beginning, (c) middle, and (d) end of the filament.
