Air Quality Monitoring - 2013
type: Dataset
description: Annual hourly air quality and meteorological data by monitoring site for the 2013 calendar year. For more information on air quality, including live air data, please visit environment.des.qld.gov.au/air. Data resolution: One-hour average values (one-hour sum for rainfall) Data row timestamp: Start of averaging period Missing data/not monitored: Blank cell Calm conditions: No hourly average wind direction is reported when the hourly average wind speed is zero Barometric pressure: Values are at monitoring station elevation, not corrected to mean sea level Daily zero/span response check: Automated instrument zero/span response checks are conducted daily between midnight and 1am at Queensland Government sites (can differ at industry sites). Where this takes place an ambient hourly value cannot be reported. Sampling height: Four metres above ground (unless otherwise indicated) PLEASE NOTE: The Auckland Point 2013 dataset was updated 24/04/2018 to remove invalid wind data due to a sensor fault

description: **Period of operation:** 1 January to 31 December 2013 **Site location:** Latitude: -27.4975; Longitude: 153.0350 **AS/NZS 3580.1.1:2007 site classification:** Peak (roadside) **AS/NZS 3580.1.1:2007 compliance (pollutants):** Complies fully **AS/NZS 3580.14:2011 compliance (meteorology):** Complies, except for: * 4 storey building located within 10 metres west of the monitoring site (no obstructions in direction of roadway). **Wind:** Ultrasonic sensor * Height above ground level: 10 metres. * The wind direction sensor is aligned to magnetic north. The reported wind direction is referenced to true north by application of a magnetic declination correction of +11 degrees to the sensor output value. **Temperature:** Capacitive ceramic sensor **Relative humidity:** Capacitive thin film polymer sensor **Oxides of nitrogen:** Chemiluminescence analyser operated in accordance with AS/NZS 3580.5.1—2010 * Instrument output offset and/or scaled based on calibration and daily zero/span response data. **Carbon monoxide:** Infrared absorption analyser operated in accordance with AS 3580.7.1—2011 * Instrument output offset and/or scaled based on calibration and daily zero/span response data. **PM10/PM2.5:** Dichotomous Tapered Element Oscillating Balance (TEOM) Model 1405-DF fitted with Filter Dynamics Measurement System (FDMS) operated in accordance with AS/NZS 3580.9.13—2013 * The FDMS system compensates for the loss of semi-volatile components from the collected particulate matter. * Reported concentrations are uncorrected instrument output values. * Negative hourly PM10/PM2.5 concentrations down to -5 µg/m^3 resulting from instrument noise at low particle concentrations are reported.

The Gap (Mount Isa) 2013 hourly air quality and meteorological data
type: Distribution
description: **Period of operation:** 1 January to 31 December 2013 * low data availability in April and May 2013 due to instrument failure. **Site location:** Latitude: -20.7264; Longitude: 139.4977 **AS/NZS 3580.1.1:2007 site classification:** Neighbourhood **AS/NZS 3580.1.1:2007 compliance (pollutants):** Complies fully **AS/NZS 3580.14:2011 compliance (meteorology):** Complies, except for: * Buildings higher than wind sensor located within 20 metres north east and east of the monitoring site. * Monitoring shelter located on concreted surface. **Wind:** Ultrasonic sensor * Height above ground level: 10 metres. * The wind direction sensor is aligned to magnetic north. The reported wind direction is referenced to true north by application of a magnetic declination correction of +6 degrees to the sensor output value. **Temperature:** Capacitive ceramic sensor * Height above ground level: 3 metres. **Sulfur dioxide:** Ultraviolet fluorescence analyser operated in accordance with AS 3580.4.1—2008 * Instrument output offset and/or scaled based on calibration and daily zero/span response data. **PM10:** Tapered Element Oscillating Balance (TEOM) Model 1400AB operated in accordance with AS 3580.9.8—2001 * Measurement values do not compensate for loss of semi-volatile components from the collected particulate matter. * Instrument output values are adjusted in accordance with US EPA equivalence designation method EQPM-1090-079 requirements (scaled by 1.03, offset by +3.0). * After adjustment, negative hourly PM10 concentrations less than -0.5 µg/m^3 are removed and concentrations between -0.5 µg/m^3 and 0.0 µg/m^3 are set to 0.0 µg/m^3.
