PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 dust particles mass concentrations and mass concentration percentages to total mass under different meteorological conditions.
| Weather type | The maximum wind speed (m/s) | The mass concentration (mg/m3) | The average mass concentration
(mg/m3) | Ratios of the mass concentration
to total concentration (%) | PM1 | PM2.5 | PM10 | PM1 | PM2.5 | PM10 |
