| Abstract: | A 5 week monitoring campaign was carried out in Dublin City centre, to establish which site gave a more accurate background
city centre estimation: a roof-top or green field site. This background represented a conservative estimate of HC exposure
in Dublin City centre, useful for quantifying health effects related to this form of pollution and also for establishing a
local background relative to the four surrounding main roads when the wind direction is travelling towards each road with
the background receptor upwind. Over the entire monitoring campaign, the lowest concentrations and relative standard deviations
were observed at the green field site, regardless of time of day or meteorological effects. |
