Abstract

To monitor urban atmospheric particles, we have undertaken simultaneous measurements of aerosols and suspended particulate matter (SPM) at Kinki University Campus, Higashi-Osaka, Japan, since 2004. The largest dust event recorded during our long-term observations was detected during the spring of 2006.<br>We also examined the relationship between PM_2.5 concentrations and aerosol properties obtained from radiometry using a multi-spectral photometer located at a NASA/AERONET station. We found a linear correlation between aerosol optical thickness and PM_2.5 concentrations for both ordinary days and days with dust events.
