Abstract | Atmospheric concentrations of 37 selected toxic organic chemicals, including aromatic hydrocarbons, halohydrocarbons, and secondary organic pollutants were measured under varying meteorological and source-strength conditions at several urban locations - Los Angeles, California; Phoenix, Arizona; and Oakland, California. Ambient air measurements of these chemicals were conducted from a suitably equipped mobile laboratory using specifically developed analytical techniques. Preliminary results on concentrations and variability, average daily exposure dosage, diurnal behavior, and atmospheric distribution, abundance, and fate are presented. |
