'PM_2.5 and PM₁₀ in Scotland' considered PM_2.5 and PM₁₀ concentrations and ratio of PM_2.5 to PM₁₀ across Scotland. It aimed to help inform these potential changes to Air Quality Strategy Objectives and Local Air Quality Management by reviewing data from the Scottish Air Quality Database, Pollution Concentration Mapping and mobile monitoring. Results from the study suggests there were some downward trends in PM, and that using the PM_2.5/PM₁₀ ratio, PM_2.5 could be calculated from PM₁₀ measurements to help inform current concentrations.
