Figure 1. Diagram of a climbing hall with photos of the four sample types analyzed in this study. Climbers wear specialized shoes with highly engineered rubber soles (1, shoe soles). Friction between these soles and the footholds produces rubber particles (2, foothold powder). These particles can become airborne—either immediately, through brushing of the holds, or later, when climbers fall onto mats and resuspend previously settled particles (3, aerosol particulate matter). Over time, these airborne particles settle onto surfaces as dust (4, settled dust).
