Latitude: 35° 22' 40.08'' S
Longitude: 140° 32' 16.08'' E
Elevation: 112 metres
The following air pollutants are measured at this station:
Data from the site is reported as hourly updated particle concentrations.
Continuous record – data from most rural sites is only collected in 15-minute intervals as the solar-powered instruments need to preserve energy.
Instrument limitations – Most rural network stations use mid-cost indicative monitors which respond to all aerosols including dust, sea salt and smoke. Single-channel DustTraks (TSP only) will also respond to fog. Care must be taken in interpreting the data compared with Air NEPM standards without additional information.
