Queensland 2018 hourly PM2.5 data
Period of reporting: 1 January to 31 December 2018
Monitoring sites: Cannon Hill, Lytton, Rocklea, South Brisbane, Southport, Springwood, Woolloongabba, Wynnum North, Wynnum West (South East Queensland); Hopeland, Miles Airport (South West Queensland); Boat Creek, Boyne Island, Clinton, Fisherman's Landing, South Gladstone, Targinie (Gladstone region); North Ward (Townsville)
Measurement units: micrograms per cubic metre (ug/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 PM2.5 concentrations down to -5 µg/m^3 resulting from instrument noise at low particle concentrations are reported.
Measurement technique (Cannon Hill, Rocklea, South Brisbane, Springwood, Southport, Woolloongabba, Boat Creek, Boyne Island, Clinton, Fisherman's Landing, 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 PM2.5 concentrations are calculated from running 1-hour average concentrations updated at six minute intervals.
- Negative hourly PM2.5 concentrations down to -5 µg/m^3 resulting from instrument noise at low particle concentrations are reported.
Measurement technique (North Ward): Scattered light spectrometry (TAPI Model 640X) operated in accordance with USEPA equivalence method designation requirements
- Reported concentrations are uncorrected instrument output values.
Measurement technique (Hopeland, Miles Airport): Optical light scattering method using Palas Fidas 200 instrument
Updated 27/05/2019: Corrected Fisherman’s Landing values which were all zero.
Updated 02/10/2019: North Ward PM10 and PM2.5 measurements corrected to standard conditions of 0°C and 1013.25kPa
