1 MOBILE AIR QUALITY MONITORING: TARGETING LOCAL ISSUES Eleanor Setton, PhD Adjunct Assistant Professor University of Victoria Geography Lead Environmental Scientist CAREX Canada
2 REAL-TIME MOBILE MONITORING PORTABLE INSTRUMENTS MOBILE AIR QUALITY MONITORING STATION
3 MONITOR COSTS ~ $8K REQUIRES PERIODIC CALIBRATION WITH CO 2 AND ZERO AIR OCCASIONALLY NEEDS A PART REPLACED (FLASH LAMP), AND CLEANING BUT GENERALLY ROBUST REQUIRES ELECTRICAL POWER AND PROTECTION FROM WEATHER UVIC HAS 2, VIHA HAS 2, MoE HAS 1 MEASURES WHATEVER PM2.5 IS PRESENT NOT SOURCE SPECIFIC UVIC NEPHS ARE AVAILABLE FOR LOAN, WITH TRAINING MANUAL FOR MOBILE OPERATION
4 LOOKING FOR WOODSMOKE HOT SPOTS SAME MOBILE ROUTE EACH NIGHT, BUT CONDITIONS CHANGE: Temperature Wind speed Wind DaT direction Individual behaviours DIFFICULT TO AVERAGE ACROSS NIGHTS Data: Kathleen Milward Cowichan Valley Regional District
5 SAME DAY, BUT THE SOURCE CHANGES BETWEEN AREAS A NATURAL EXPERIMENT : RESULTS: City of Colwood has since banned backyard burning, Langford still holding out Cowichan Valley Regional District, Nanaimo, and Campbell River have used mobile data to identify areas for Burn It Smart programs and wood stove exchange incentives. BACKYARD BURNING ALLOWED BACKYARD BURNING NOT ALLOWED
6 USING THE NEPHELOMETER IN STATIONARY MODE: CONFIRM HOTSPOTS MORE INTERESTING: USE MORE THAN ONE TO COMPARE AREAS - OUR NATURAL EXPERIMENT
7 A SINGLE NEPHELOMETER CAN BE SET UP TO ASSESS REGIONAL LEVELS: DOWNTOWN COURTENAY
8 A SECOND NEPHELOMETER HELPS IDENTIFY LOCAL SOURCES: DOWNTOWN COURTENAY AND A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBOURHOD
9 A THIRD NEPHELOMETER AT THE LOCAL SOURCE PROVIDES YET MORE INFORMATION: DOWNTOWN COURTENAY, A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBOURHOOD, AND A LOCAL PARK
10 AND, ALL THREE HELP TO IDENTIFY LOCAL SOURCES AND REGIONAL TRANSPORT EVENTS: RESULTS: Comox Valley Regional District staff and the local Health Office used these data to initiate a very lively public debate in the community about beach fires at Goose Spit Park, and to address residents concerns about potential health impacts of occasional smoke plumes. Exceedences of the 24 hour guideline were associated only with regional wildfires.
11 USING A NEPHELOMETER WITH OTHER KINDS OF MONITORS TRAFFIC COUNTERS IN A NATURAL EXPERIMENT TO LOOK AT CRUISE SHIP IMPACTS TRAFFIC PM2.5 D-1 PM2.5 D-2 TRAFFIC RESULTS: These data suggested increased vehicle traffic when cruise ships were present was not a major source. Cruise ship emissions were apparent, but levels were not high. PM2.5 TRAFFIC D-3
12 The MOBILE AIR MONITORING LABORATORY (MAML) Essentially equivalent to a fixed site station, but can be set up in local areas for several months A full suite of instruments on board (CO, SO 2, NO 2, O 3, PM 2.5, BC, methane/nonmethane hydrocarbons, VOCs, PAHs, and more; also wind speed and direction, temperature, relative humidity Instruments require regular calibration by qualified specialist Data can be polled real-time Requires dedicated power source and reasonably secure parking site
13 MAML DATA for JAMES BAY STUDY OF CRUISE SHIP IMPACTS
14 AND ANOTHER NATURAL EXPERIMENT CRUISE SHIP PRESENCE/ABSENCE RESULTS: Cruise ships are not a significant source of PM 2.5 at this location
15 AND ANOTHER NATURAL EXPERIMENT CRUISE SHIP PRESENCE/ABSENCE RESULTS: Cruise ships are a significant source of NO 2 at this location, but levels are below guidelines
16 RESULTS: Cruise ships are a significant source of NO at this location, but levels are below guidelines
17 RESULTS: Cruise ships are a significant source of SO 2 at this location, and guidelines are sometimes exceeded RESULTS: A health risk assessment has been completed and a community SO 2 monitor is in the works
18 REAL-TIME MONITORING AND TRANSMISSION OF NO 2 LEVELS THE FUTURE?
