TAILIEUCHUNG - Operation of the Air Pollution Index (API), the Air Quality Index (AQI) and the Air Quality Advisory

After the two introductory presentations, participants receive hands-on training in how to operate (launch on a computer, troubleshoot, etc.) the UCB particle monitor, the HOBO CO logger and CO diffusion tubes. During a field trip to a nearby biomass-using home they place the instruments in the kitchen, record important sampling information on a sampling data form and collect basic information about the kitchen and household. A post- monitoring questionnaire characterizes important factors that can affect IAP levels. Participants are also encouraged to take photographs of the placement of the monitors and the household itself; these serve as a basis for a later discussion of the sampling experience.
