Abstracts
In this study, the continuous monitoring of the concentration of PM-10 atmospheric particulate matter using beta
ray attenuation method was compared with gravimetric method from September, 2006 to August, 2007. On the
effects of the PM-10 concentration and mass difference by relative humidity and precipitation were considered. The
result showed that the measurement error between beta ray method and gravimetric method are within -3�6% in
average, which means PM-10 concentration data with beta ray method are relatively comparable.
The current study also shows that the high PM-10 concentration events are mainly due to haze, Asian dust, and
high relative humidity and the PM-10 mass concentration is closely related with relative humidity and precipitation
events. Based on daily mean data, the PM-10 increases as relative humidity increases up to 70~80%, then decreases
over 80% due to the precipitation. However, the distinct measurement discrepancy was not shown between beta ray
method and gravimetric method based on current results. Consequently, this study shows that the collocated measurement
in different instrument is essential in order to quantify the accuracy of PM-10. Furthermore, the more comprehensive
and spatially distributed comparison is needed and this is remained for future study.
