Testing the air quality in a classroom during the entire school day. The CO2 and O3 levels are expected to rise and fall consistently as students enter, remain, and exit during the day. It is expected that the levels reach a plateau at the mid-point of the period before declining.
What parameters are you sampling for? (e.g. N02, CO, C02)
CO2, O3
Describe the Method of Data Collection - (Include the frequency, duration and location of monitoring.)
We will sample data for seven hours in the science classroom.
