Sažetak
Mass concentrations of the airborne particulate matter with the aerodynamic diameter less than 1m (PM1.0) were measured at the residential part of Zagreb during the period from 14 September to 6 October 2011. Measurements were performed by the DUSTTRAKTM Aerosol Monitor at the temporal resolution of one minute. The monitor was mounted at the 3 m high mast located at the roof terrace of Geophysical Institute building at Horvatovac, with the inlet height at 15.8 m above the ground. At the same site 1-min means of the air pressure, temperature, wind speed and direction and relative humidity were also recorded. Diurnal variation of PM1.0 concentrations went along with the diurnal variation in human activities, and particularly in the traffic. Investigation of the relationships between the PM1.0 concentrations and ambient meteorological conditions suggests the importance of advection of pollution towards residential environment. Finally, results show the dependence of PM1.0 levels on relative humidity.
