Abstract Over the 1984-1993 period ambient air samples from various U.S. cities and Mexico City were analyzed to determine concentrations of C2- C12 hydrocarbons. Samples were collected by pumping ambient air into Summa stainless steel canisters and analyzed by capillary gas chromatography with cryogenic preconcentration. During this period two methods were employed to improve retention time precision. Data from these field studies were used to determine retention time precision for the peaks identified and to evaluate the two retention time precision enhancement methods. The variation of retention time over the period of analysis is demonstrated by plots of retention time standard deviation versus retention time.
