Molecular Marker Study of Particulate Organic Matter in Southern Ontario Air

Figure 2

Scatter plot of coronene (Cor) concentration versus benzo[ghi]perylene (BgP) concentration. Plots shown are in log-log scale and the inset shown is in expanded linear scale. The slopes of the linear regressions for Hamilton, Simcoe, and YGT are 0.27 ± 0.01 ( = 0.914), 0.37 ± 0.01 ( = 0.933), and 0.51 ± 0.04 ( = 0.802), respectively. Error bars shown are standard errors estimated from the replicate measurements.
