Positive matrix factorization of PM<sub>2.5</sub> – eliminating the effects of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds

Gas-phase concentrations of semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) were calculated from gas/particle (G/P) partitioning theory using their measured particle-phase concentrations. The particle-phase data were obtained from an existing filter measurement campaign (27 January 2003–2 October 2005) as a...
