Winter Mass Concentrations of Carbon Species in PM10, PM2.5 and PM1 in Zagreb Air, Croatia

The purpose of our investigation was to examine the mass concentrations of EC, OC and TC (EC + OC) in PM 10 , PM 2.5 and PM 1 particle fractions. Daily PM 10 , PM 2.5 and PM 1 samples were collected at an urban background monitoring site in Zagreb during winter 2009. Average OC and EC mass concentra...

Zusammenfassung:	The purpose of our investigation was to examine the mass concentrations of EC, OC and TC (EC + OC) in PM 10 , PM 2.5 and PM 1 particle fractions. Daily PM 10 , PM 2.5 and PM 1 samples were collected at an urban background monitoring site in Zagreb during winter 2009. Average OC and EC mass concentrations were 11.9 and 1.8 μg m −3 in PM 10 , 9.0 and 1.4 μg m −3 in PM 2.5 , and 5.5 and 1.1 μg m −3 in PM 1 . Average OC/EC ratios in PM 10 , PM 2.5 , and PM 1 were 7.4, 6.9 and 5.4, respectively.
