TL;DR: In this article, the concentration and distribution of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in ambient air were determined at two sites within the Klang Valley, Kuala Lumpur (urban, KL) and Petaling Jaya (industrial, PJ), and one site outside the KL Valley, Bangi (semi-urban, BG).
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The muscle and carapace/exoskeleton of shrimp, lobster and crabs were analysed and contained various concentrations of Pb, Hg, As, Cr, Cd, Fe, Cu, Zn and Mn; crabs showed higher mean heavy metal concentrations than shrimp and lobster.
Journal ArticleDOI
Consistency and Traceability of Black Carbon Measurements Made by Laser-Induced Incandescence, Thermal-Optical Transmittance, and Filter-Based Photo-Absorption Techniques

TL;DR: In this paper, the volatilities of 13 organic compounds passed through a heated inlet were used to quantify the interference of pyrolyzed refractory organics on the BC measured with a filter-based absorption photometer continuous soot monitoring system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of rainwater chemical composition after a Southeast Asia haze event: insight of transboundary pollutant transport during the northeast monsoon.

TL;DR: The BT model showed that pollutants transported from the mainland of Indo-China and the marine region in the South China Sea were responsible for the high pollution event in the study area.
Journal ArticleDOI
