| Abstract | Due to the lack of comprehensive wind data at most sites, a simplified dispersion model was tested for its applicability in Hong Kong. The results were found not to give a very accurate prediction of the pollutant levels found at given receptor sites. Thus, a receptor model approach was used to assess the relative contribution of major air pollution sources at receptor sites in Hong Kong. Trace metals and inorganic anions were used as the markers for the above assessment. Factor Analysis method was used to identify possible sources, followed by quantification using the Target Transform Factor Analysis. The results obtained are given and discussed. -from Author |
