In order to understand the current status of main chemical components of atmospheric precipitation in Xi'an, the pH, electrical conductivity, mass concentration of water-soluble ions and heavy metals, wet deposition fluxes, and their sources in precipitation samples in urban and suburban areas of Xi'an in 2019 were studied. The results showed that the pH, conductivity, water-soluble ions, and heavy metals in precipitation in Xi'an in winter were higher than those in other seasons. The main water-soluble ions in precipitation were Ca, NH, SO, and NO, and the sum of these ions accounted for (88.
