Ambient fine size fraction particulate matter (PM2.5) sources in the western Canada city of Calgary, Alberta were identified and their contributions quantified for 2015–2019 based on elemental and ion composition data from sampling at a central monitoring site and the US Environmental Protection Agency Positive Matrix Factorization (v5.0) receptor...
Airborne particulate matter (PM) has been associated with cardiovascular and respiratory morbidity and mortality, and there is some evidence that spatially varying metals found in PM may contribute to adverse health effects.
