TL;DR: Multiple definitions of RPA are dealt with, but only in quaternary areas of FVG, using extensive simulation techniques, and it appears they are created by the same geologic features influencing the mean and median values, and can't be eliminated via a map-based approach.

TL;DR: In this paper, the temporal trends of ten elements, namely Cl, Cu, Cr, Fe, Mg, Ni, P, S, Zn and Zr, in airborne particulate matter sampled in the urban area of Turin (Piedmont, Italy) were determined by wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence for the period from 2002 to 2005.

TL;DR: A blind intercomparison of ground-based ultraviolet (UV) instruments has been organized for the first time in Italy, which involved 8 institutions, 10 broadband radiometers, 2 filter radiometers and 2 spectroradiometers as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: . A blind intercomparison of ground-based ultraviolet (UV) instruments has been organized for the first time in Italy. The campaign was coordinated by the Environmental Protection Agency of Aosta Valley (ARPA Valle d'Aosta) and took place in Saint-Christophe (45.8° N, 7.4° E, 570 m a.s.l.), in the Alpine region, from 8 to 23 June 2010. It involved 8 institutions, 10 broadband radiometers, 2 filter radiometers and 2 spectroradiometers. Synchronized measurements of downward global solar UV irradiance at the ground were collected and the raw series were then individually processed by the respective operators on the base of their own procedures and calibration data. A radiative transfer model was successfully applied as an interpretative tool. The input parameters and output results are described in detail. The comparison was performed in terms of global solar UV Index and integrated UV-A irradiance against a well-calibrated double monochromator spectroradiometer as reference. An improved algorithm for comparing broadband data and spectra has been developed and is discussed in detail. For some instruments, we found average deviations ranging from −16 % up to 20 % relative to the reference and diurnal variations as large as 15 % even in clear days. Remarkable deviations were found for the instruments calibrated in the manufacturers' facilities and never involved in field intercomparison. Finally, some recommendations to the UV operators based on the campaign results are proposed.

TL;DR: This study explores the potential of an integrated and high time-resolved monitoring approach for the identification and characterization of local, regional and long-range transport events of high PM and identifies a time-limited event.
