Luscombe (South East Queensland) 2016 hourly air quality and meteorological data
datastore ActivePeriod of operation: 1 January to 15 November 2016 (site closed)
Site location: Latitude: -27.7747; Longitude: 153.2014
AS/NZS 3580.1.1:2007 site classification: Neighbourhood
AS/NZS 3580.1.1:2007 compliance (pollutants): Complies fully
AS/NZS 3580.14:2011 compliance (meteorology): Complies, except for:
- Wind, temperature, relative humidity, rainfall and barometric pressure sensors located 10 metres above ground level.
- Rainfall measured by acoustic sensor.
Wind sensor: Ultrasonic sensor
Temperature: Capacitive ceramic sensor
Relative humidity: Capacitive thin film polymer sensor
Rainfall: Vaisala RAINCAP® precipitation sensor.
Barometric pressure: Capacitive silicon sensor.
PM10/PM2.5 (until 6 May) : 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 and PM2.5 concentrations are calculated from running 1-hour average concentrations updated at six minute intervals.
- Negative hourly PM10/PM2.5 concentrations down to -5 µg/m^3 resulting from instrument noise at low particle concentrations are reported.
PM10 (from 6 May): DustMaster Pro 6000 photometer operated in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.
- Instrument output corrected by factor determined by comparison with the 1405-DF TEOM output between 7 April and 4 May 2016.
TSP (until 6 May): Tapered Element Oscillating Microbalance (TEOM) Model 1405 operated in accordance with AS/NZS 3580.9.16 (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 TSP 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
