Aerosol Sampling Program (ASP) - Fine Particle Pollution Monitoring at Cape Grim, Tasmania (2000-2009)

The Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) have been involved in PM2.5 fine particle research since the early 1990's. Ambient fine particles have been routinely collected every Wednesday and Sunday for 24 hour sampling periods at locations covering a range of demographics including; urban, rural and industrial sites in Australia. The collected samples have been subsequently measured and characterised at ANSTO using accelerator based nuclear Ion Beam Analytical (IBA) techniques.澳大利亚核科学与技术组织（Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation, ANSTO）自20世纪90年代初便投身于PM2.5细颗粒物研究领域。该团队在澳大利亚涵盖城市、乡村、工业等多类人口特征区域的采样点位，固定于每周三与周日开展单次时长24小时的环境细颗粒物采样工作。所采集的样本随后在ANSTO借助基于加速器的核离子束分析（Ion Beam Analytical, IBA）技术完成检测与特征表征。
