datastore ActiveURL: https://data.des.qld.gov.au/__data/assets/file/0019/84016/southgladstone-aq-2015.csv
Period of operation: 1 January to 31 December 2015
Site location: Latitude: -23.8627; Longitude: 151.2704
AS/NZS 3580.1.1 site classification: Neighbourhood
AS/NZS 3580.1.1 compliance (pollutants): Complies fully
AS/NZS 3580.14 compliance (meteorology): Complies, except for:
- Isolated trees within 20 metres of the monitoring site.
- Temperature and relative humidity sensors located 10 metres above ground level.
- Rainfall measured by acoustic sensor.
Wind: Ultrasonic sensor
- Height above ground level: 10 metres.
- The wind direction sensor is aligned to magnetic north. The reported wind direction is referenced to true north by application of a magnetic declination correction of +10 degrees to the sensor output value.
Temperature: Capacitive ceramic sensor
- Height above ground level: 10 metres.
Relative humidity: Capacitive thin film polymer sensor
- Height above ground level: 10 metres.
Rainfall: Vaisala RAINCAP® precipitation sensor
- Height above ground level: 10 metres.
Barometric pressure: Capacitive silicon sensor
- Height above ground level: 10 metres.
Solar radiation: Pyranometer
Oxides of nitrogen: Chemiluminescence analyser operated in accordance with AS/NZS 3580.5.1
- Instrument output offset and/or scaled based on calibration and daily zero/span response data.
Sulfur dioxide: Ultraviolet fluorescence analyser operated in accordance with AS 3580.4.1
- Instrument output offset and/or scaled based on calibration and daily zero/span response data.
PM10/PM2.5: 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.
- Negative hourly PM10/PM2.5 concentrations down to -5 µg/m^3 resulting from instrument noise at low particle concentrations are reported.
Visibility-reducing particles: Nephelometer operated in accordance with AS/NZS 3580.12.1
- Detector spectral response centred at 530 nm.
- Instrument output offset and/or scaled based on calibration and daily zero/span response data.
