Chemical Composition Time Series
PM10
PM10 data from seven stations in Mumbai collected as part of 6 city source apportionment study is plotted as a time series along with the surface dust concentration from the Navel Aerosol Analysis and Prediction System (NAAPS)model. The background site "Colaba" shows a PM10 value of ~150 ug/m3 throughout the study period except for dates in the last week of February,2008 when it increases to ~500 ug/m3. Dust concentration on these dates shows an increase of ~300 ug/m3.
