Abstract     Sphaerical carbonaceous particles (SCOs) are an indicator of past and present atmospheric deposition. In three lakes of the Triglave National Park analyses of a sediment trap material were carried out between 1996 to 1997. For each lake bulk number was determined and expressed as daily deposition on the surface unit. Methodoology used was accepted in the MOLAR protocols (Mountain Lake Research in Europe). Particles size range from 2 micro m. In 1996 3.6 particles/cm2/day were deposited in Lake Jezero na Planini, 2.2 particles/cm2/day in Lake Krnsko jezero, and 0.4 particles/cm2/day in Lake Jezero v Ledvicah. In 1997 concentrations were 3 particles/cm2/day, 12 particles/cm2/day, and 15 particles/cm2 day for lakes in a same order. Data were not in a correlation with sedimentation volume neither with organic mater content (AFDW). Meteorological data should be considered more carefully.
