Speciated Seasonal over the Central EUS
The seasonal aerosol aerosol pattern at the IMPROVE sites is examined using two methodologies:
At Lye Brook, VT, the clean days (20 percentile) corresponds to ~4 ug/m3 throughout the year
The dirty days are (80-90%-ile) have 2-5 times higher concentration than the clean days.
Great Smoky Mtn.Lye Brook
Clean days (20%) ‘Clean’ days (20%)
Dirty days, 80-90%
Dirty days, 80-90%
At the Smoky Mtn, the clean days in the winter are also ~4 ug/m3. However in the summer, even the ‘clean’ days have 14 ug/m3 PM2.5.
The dirty days are have 2-3 times higher than the clean days through out the year.
• The charts depict the magnitude of seasonal and synoptic variation• The synoptic-scale variation (day-to-day) can be measured by the 20-80 percentile spread
Regional Grouping of Sites
• For this presentation the IMPROVE sites were grouped as follows:
– New England ()
– Mid-Atlantic ()
– Central EUS ()
– Peripheral ()
• For each region, the seasonality is displayed for:
– Chemical Mass Balance
– Carbonaceous Mass Balance
– Fine Particle Mass Percentiles
– Coarse Mass Percentiles
– Sulfate Percentiles
– Fine Soil Percentiles
– Tot. Carbon. + 'Unknown' Percentiles
– Smoke Organics Percentiles
