Mountain Creek (Sunshine Coast, South East Queensland) 2017 hourly air quality and meteorological data
datastore ActivePeriod of operation: 1 January to 31 December 2017
Site location: Latitude: -26.6917; Longitude: 153.1038
AS/NZS 3580.1.1 site classification: Neighbourhood
AS/NZS 3580.1.1 compliance (pollutants): Complies fully
AS/NZS 3580.14 compliance (meteorology): Complies fully
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 +11 degrees to the sensor output value.
Temperature: Capacitive ceramic sensor
Ozone: UV absorption analyser operated in accordance with AS/NZS 3580.6.1
- Instrument output offset and/or scaled based on calibration and daily zero/span response data.
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.
PM10 (to 12 January): 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.
PM10 (from 12 January): 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 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.
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.
