Characterization of water-soluble inorganic ions in size-segregated aerosols in coastal city, Xiamen

The samples of water-soluble inorganic ions (WSIs), including anions (F−, Cl−, SO42−, NO3−) and cations (NH4+, K+, Na+, Ca2+, Mg2+) in 8 size-segregated particle matter (PM), were collected using a sampler (with 8 nominal cut-sizes ranged from 0.43 to 9.0μm) from October 2008 to September 2009 at fi...

Description
Summary:The samples of water-soluble inorganic ions (WSIs), including anions (F−, Cl−, SO42−, NO3−) and cations (NH4+, K+, Na+, Ca2+, Mg2+) in 8 size-segregated particle matter (PM), were collected using a sampler (with 8 nominal cut-sizes ranged from 0.43 to 9.0μm) from October 2008 to September 2009 at five sites in both polluted and background regions of a coastal city, Xiamen. The results showed that particulate matters in the fine mode (PM2.1, Dp
