To estimate the atmospheric deposition flux of 210Pb in the equatorial western Indian Ocean, we determined the dissolved ( 0.45 μm) in the water column. In addition, we calculated the atmosphere-derived dissolvable Pb in seawater using the budget of 210Pb. The dissolved 210Pb and total 210Pb were higher in the surface layer and, overall, showed a decreasing distribution with depth. In particular, radioactive 210Pb activities in the surface-to-upper layer (
