Question

What are intake fractions of airborne particulate matter for different emission sources and locations?

Answer

⇤--#: . The answer should include data from Exposure to PM2.5 in Finland#Intake fractions of PM. --Jouni (talk) 17:16, 8 April 2015 (UTC) (type: truth; paradigms: science: attack)

+ Show code- Hide code library(OpasnetUtils) library(ggplot2) objects.latest("Op_en5813", code_name="initiate") iF.PM2.5 <- EvalOutput(iF.PM2.5) ggplot(iF.PM2.5@output, aes(x = iF.PM2.5Result, colour = Subcategory)) + geom_density() + theme_gray(base_size = 24)

Rationale

Data

These data in the first table come from

Pollutants:

• PM10-2.5: Primary PM10 - primary PM2.5
• PM2.5: Primary PM2.5
• SO2: Secondary PM2.5 derived from SO2 (in practice, SO_4)
• NOx: Secondary PM2.5 derived from NOx (in practice, NO_3)
• NH3: Secondary PM2.5 derived from NH3 (in practice, NH4)
