Precisions were estimated from flow rate performance tests and replicate analyses (Watson et al.,
1995). Precisions were typically within + 10% for
measured values which exceeded ten times lower
quantifiable limits (LQLs) of the analysis method and
are reported as an integral part of the SJVAQS/
AUSPEX databases (Chow et al., 1992b). The submission and evaluation of reference standards
through independent quality audits by the SJVAQS/
AUSPEX quality assurance manager was used to
estimate the accuracy of each measurement, which
was typically within + 5% of the standard value
(Gertler et al., 1990).
The measured chemicals, their analytical techniques, the root mean squared (RMS) precisions of
measurements, LQLs, and number of samples above
the LQLs are given in Table 1. The LQLs are defined
as concentrations corresponding to two times the
standard deviation of each species measured on the

dynamic field blanks. Although actual volumes during sampling varied from sample to sample, a nominal
volume of 8.4 m 3 for a typical 7 h sample was assumed
in the LQL calculation. Table 1 shows that the RMS
precisions are comparable in magnitude to the LQLs.
PM2.s and PMIo mass, ions (i.e. sulfate, nitrate, ammonium), organic carbon, and elemental carbon were
detected in most cases. Several elements acquired by
X-ray fluorescence analysis, specifically those which
increase in atomic number from palladium to mercury, were not frequently detected. This is typical for
regionally representative sites without influences from
nearby heavy industry. Aluminum, silicon, potassium,
calcium, manganese, iron, and zinc were detected over
80% of the time; most of these elements are abundant
in resuspended dust.
Data were submitted to four data validation levels:
(1) Level 0 designates data as they come offthe instrument and ascertains that the field or laboratory instrument is functioning properly; (2) Level I flags
samples when significant deviations from measure-

Analysis methods are ion chromatography (IC), automated colorimetry (AC), atomic absorption spectropbotometry
(AAS), thermal/optical reflectance (TOR), and energy dispersive X-ray fluoresGence (XRF).
b RMS or root mean squared error is the square root of the average of the squared uncertainties of the individual
uncertainties of the observations divided by the number of observations.
* LQL or lower quantifiable limit is equal to two times the uncertainty of the field blank~ The LQL is expressed here in
terms of mass per c~blc meter, after dividing by 8.4 m 3, the nominal volume for a 7 h sample.
d Data not available.

To evaluate the chemical data for internal consistency, the following tests were performed: (1) comparison with PM2.5 and PMlo, (2) adsorption of gaseous
organic carbon on quartz-fiber filters, (3) sum of chemical species vs mass, and (4) cation and anion balance.
Comparison with PM2.s and P M t o

and front filter OC. The ratio is fairly constant at
PM2. 5 concentrations greater than 30/~gm-3 but is
variable and frequently higher at lower PM2.5 concentrations. Relatively larger organic vapor artifacts
at lower PM2.5 concentrations suggests that particles
provide additional adsorption sites on the front filters.
While this explanation is consistent with the AUSPEX observations, further experimental studies are
needed to improve our understanding of the organic
carbon sampling artifact.

be present as sodium sulfate. If this is the case, the
sulfate associated with sodium sulfate (0.25 x Na +)
(Pytkowicz and Kester, 1971) can be subtracted as
equivalent ammonium from the total calculated ammonium. Sodium nitrate is only significant when
C1;(E1.8 x Na +] - CI-) exceeds zero. An equivalent
concentration to account for sodium nitrate is estimated (2.7 x Cld-) and subtracted as its ammonium
equivalent from the total calculated ammonium. In

from organic gases, but these contributions need to be
further investigated.
Average PM2.5 sulfate concentrations ranged from
1.1 to 3.3#gm -3. Average PM2.s nitrate and ammonium concentrations ranged from 0.1 to
1.5 # g m -3 at the ten sites, which is < 5 0 % of average
PM2.s sulfate concentrations. Nitrate, sulfate, and
ammonium constituted 25-35% of the PMz.s mass
and 15-25% of the PMto mass at all but the Point
Reyes site. The PM2.s ions to mass ratio reached 0.5
at the Point Reyes site. Maximum and average PM2.5
mass, nitrate, sulfate, and ammonium were highest at
the Edison site.
Twenty-four hour PM2.s sulfate and nitrate concentrations were highest during the 8/3/90 to 8/6/90
episode. Figure 13 shows that sulfate and nitrate concentrations were stable over this 4-day episode, with

abundances in PM2.s and PMlo. The material balance (Solomon et al., 1989; Chow et al., 1994d) applies
the following steps: (1) multiply average organic carbon concentrations by 1.4 to account for unmeasured
hydrogen and oxygen in organic material; (2) sum the
aluminum, silicon, calcium, and iron oxides (i.e.
[1.89 x aluminum] + [2.14 x silicon] + [1.4 x calcium] + [1.43 x iron]) to estimate the crustal material; (3) sum the soluble sodium and chloride to
account for sea salt; and (4) add the concentrations
of other species listed in Tables 3 and 4, without
double-counting chloride, soluble potassium, and total sulfur.
The unexplained portion is usually less than 10% of
average PM2.5 or PMIo mass concentrations. When
crustal materials are a larger fraction of the total mass

Contributions from crustal material and trace species in the PMIo fraction were lowest (41%) at the
Yosemite site and highest (79%) at the Crows Landing site, whereas PMlo contributions from organic
carbon were highest (62%) at the Yosemite site and
