Winter Mass Concentrations of Carbon Species in PM sub(10), PM sub(2.5) and PM sub(1) in Zagreb Air, Croatia

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

Zusammenfassung:The purpose of our investigation was to examine the mass concentrations of EC, OC and TC (EC + OC) in PM sub(10), PM sub(2.5) and PM sub(1) particle fractions. Daily PM sub(10), PM sub(2.5) and PM sub(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 mu g m super(-3) in PM sub(10), 9.0 and 1.4 mu g m super(-3) in PM sub(2.5), and 5.5 and 1.1 mu g m super(-3) in PM sub(1). Average OC/EC ratios in PM sub(10), PM sub(2.5), and PM sub(1) were 7.4, 6.9 and 5.4, respectively.
