Notes:
Samples were taken of the atmospheric particulate matter over Fairbanks Alaska in the winter of 1985, and from wood stoves burning the major wood types locally available. These samples were then analyzed for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH). A PAH emission profile was determined from the wood stove samples and applied to the atmospheric samples to determine the residential wood combustion contribution to the local atmospheric particulate burden. Emission profiles for coal burning and automobile emissions for PAH were also used to estimate their relative contributions.
