Particulate matter during New year’s eve 2010
A little wind helped a lot to make the air quality good during New year’s eve 2010 (both at GRE and HEH - two measuring station in Reykjavik and Hafnafjordur, repsectively).
The highest value was “only” 350 micro-g/m3 – has previously reached well above 2000 micro-g/m3.
The wind kept the values low, wind speed even felt stronger than the measurement indicates, but it is also possible that there were a bit fewer fireworks this year (?).
