Abstract Title

Multi-Year Analysis of Aerosols, Fine Particulate Matter, and Local Sulfur Species in the Lewis Clark Valley

Abstract

Air pollution kills millions of people each year, indicating pollutant monitoring is essential. This study focuses on concentrations of aerosols, fine particulate matter, and sulfur species in the Lewis-Clark Valley over multiple years. A NASA AERONET Sun‐sky radiometer, an Idaho Department of Environmental Quality beta attenuation monitoring (BAM) PM2.5, and a Teledyne T102 ultraviolet-fluorescence sulfur analyzer were used to obtain ground-based data. Continuous monitoring of these air pollutants will discern long term trends in the area, and help identify main sources emitting these pollutants.
