Abstract

Evaluation of the quality of atmopsheric air in Novosibrsk was made on the basis of the examination of solid suspended particles (SSP) measured by the Rosgidromet system and by the Institute of Chemical Kinetics and Combustion SB RAS. It was established that the fraction of particles ≤10 μm (SP10) in SSP is equal to 0.67. Evaluation of the quality of atmospheric air on the basis of SP10 did not reveal other pollutants in the urban air as established by Rosgidromet according to the existing procedure.
