NotesThe profile has been produced as an average of 5 PM10 samples (using an Hydra sampler), including 3 days and 2 nights. The 3 day and 2 nocturnal samples were analyzed; two weighted averages (one for diurnal and one for night) were produced and finally produced A combined profile that also takes into account the compositional variability of the 5 samples taken.
Sampling MethodsThe sampling site was in an underpass in Bari.
Uncertainty Notesuncertainty propagation on analytical uncertainty and standard deviation among samples
