Sampling Objective (e.g. Why you are sampling and what you hope to learn)
Testing the air quality at a busy intersection. The levels of CO2, CO, NO2, and 03 are expected to increase during the time periods when traffic idles for the red light. The data is expected to rise and fall consistently in unison with the timing of the traffic light.
What parameters are you sampling for? (e.g. N02, CO, C02)
CO2, CO, NO2, O3
Describe the Method of Data Collection - (Include the frequency, duration and location of monitoring.)
We will sample data for thirty minutes at a time at the intersection of Abbott Road and Southside Parkway.
Explain how you will establish background levels of sampling parameters.
