Hourly PM10 data

URL: https://data.des.qld.gov.au/__data/assets/file/0022/84082/pm10-qld-2015.csv

Period of reporting: 1 January to December 2015

Monitoring sites: Brisbane CBD, Cannon Hill, Flinders View, Luscombe, Lytton, Mountain Creek, Pinkenba, Rocklea, South Brisbane, Springwood, Woolloongabba, Wynnum North, Wynnum West (South East Queensland); Jondaryan (Jondaryan); Auckland Point, Boat Creek, Boyne Island, Clinton, South Gladstone, Targinie (Gladstone region); West Mackay (Mackay); Moranbah (Moranbah); Ayr (Ayr); Pimlico, Townsville Coast Guard (Townsville); The Gap (Mount Isa)

Measurement units: micrograms per cubic metre (ug/m^3)

Measurement technique (Brisbane CBD, Flinders View, Mountain Creek, Pinkenba, Springwood, Auckland Point, Moranbah (to 14 May), Pimlico (to 19 May), The Gap): Tapered Element Oscillating Balance (TEOM) Model 1400AB operated in accordance with AS 3580.9.8

  • Measurement values do not compensate for loss of semi-volatile components from the collected particulate matter.
  • Instrument output values are adjusted in accordance with US EPA equivalence designation method EQPM-1090-079 requirements (scaled by 1.03, offset by +3.0).
  • After adjustment, negative hourly PM10 concentrations less than -0.5 µg/m^3 are removed and concentrations between -0.5 µg/m^3 and 0.0 µg/m^3 are set to 0.0 µg/m^3.

Measurement technique (West Mackay, Moranbah (from 15 May), Ayr, Pimlico (from 19 May), Townsville Coast Guard): Tapered Element Oscillating Balance (TEOM) Model 1405 operated in accordance with AS/NZS 3580.9.13, excluding FDMS requirements

  • Measurement values do not compensate for loss of semi-volatile components from the collected particulate matter.
  • Reported concentrations are uncorrected instrument output values.
  • Negative hourly PM10 concentrations less than -0.5 µg/m^3 are removed and concentrations between -0.5 µg/m^3 and 0.0 µg/m^3 are set to 0.0 µg/m^3.

Measurement technique (Lytton, Wynnum North, Wynnum West): Dichotomous Tapered Element Oscillating Balance (TEOM) Model 1405-D operated in accordance with AS/NZS 3580.9.13 (excluding FDMS requirements)

  • Measurement values do not compensate for loss of semi-volatile components from the collected particulate matter.
  • Reported concentrations are uncorrected instrument output values.
  • Negative hourly PM10 concentrations down to -5 µg/m^3 resulting from instrument noise at low particle concentrations are reported.

Measurement technique (Cannon Hill, Luscombe, Rocklea, South Brisbane, Woolloongabba, Jondaryan, Boat Creek, Boyne Island, Clinton, South Gladstone, Targinie): Dichotomous Tapered Element Oscillating Balance (TEOM) Model 1405-DF fitted with Filter Dynamics Measurement System (FDMS) operated in accordance with AS/NZS 3580.9.13

  • The FDMS system compensates for the loss of semi-volatile components from the collected particulate matter.
  • Reported concentrations are uncorrected instrument output values.
  • The reported PM10 concentrations are calculated from running 1-hour average concentrations updated at six minute intervals.
  • Negative hourly PM10 concentrations down to -5 µg/m^3 resulting from instrument noise at low particle concentrations are reported.
