Spatial distribution of fine and coarse particulate matter during a southwest monsoon in Peninsular Malaysia. Chemosphere, 262, 127767.https://repoemc.ukm.my/handle/123456789/522This study aimed to determine the spatial distribution of PM2.5 and PM10 collected in four regions (North, Central, South and East Coast) of Peninsular Malaysia during the southwest monsoon. Concurrent measurements of PM2.5 and PM10 were performed using a high volume sampler (HVS) for 24 h (August to September 2018) collecting a total of 104 samples. All samples were then analysed for water soluble inorganic ions (WSII) using ion chromatography, trace metals using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectroscopy (ICP-MS) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAHs) using gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS).enPM2.5PM10Peninsular MalaysiaSource apportionmentChemical compositionJournal
