Source Apportionment of Coarse and Fine Particulate Matter at Navi Mumbai, India

Source Apportionment of Total Suspended Particulate Matter in Coarse and Fine Size Ranges Over Delhi

Source apportionment of total suspended particulate matter (TSPM) and associated heavy metals has been carried out for the city of Delhi using the Chemical Mass Balance Model, Version 8 (CMB8), as well as principle component analysis (PCA) of SPSS (Varimax Rotated Factor Matrix method) in coarseand fine-size mode. Urban particles were collected using a five-stage impactor at six sites in the wi...

California Wildfires of 2008: Coarse and Fine Particulate Matter Toxicity

BACKGROUND During the last week of June 2008, central and northern California experienced thousands of forest and brush fires, giving rise to a week of severe fire-related particulate air pollution throughout the region. California experienced PM(10-2.5) (particulate matter with mass median aerodynamic diameter > 2.5 mum to < 10 mum; coarse ) and PM(2.5) (particulate matter with mass median aer...

Concentration dynamics of coarse and fine particulate matter at and around signalised traffic intersections.

The understanding of rapidly evolving concentrations of particulate matter (PMC) at signalised traffic intersections (TIs) is limited, but it is important for accurate exposure assessment. We performed "mobile" and "fixed-site" monitoring of size-resolved PMCs in the 0.25-34 μm range at TIs. On-road mobile measurements were made inside a car under five different ventilation settings on a 6 km l...
