PM comes in a range of sizes
PM10 (Diameter ≤ 10μm)
PM2.5 (Diameter ≤ 2.5μm)
~ 50 μm

PM and Health Effects
Very large > PM10
Coarse PM: PM2.5 < PM ≤ PM10
Fine PM: ≤ PM2.5
WHO estimates the total number of PM-related
deaths to be approximately 3.3 million/year world-wide.
More than malaria + AIDS, combined.

UB air pollution
From 2011 WHO Outdoor Air Pollution Database and Dec 2011 WB report: Air Quality Analysis of Ulaanbaatar
According to 2011 WHO Outdoor PM10 survey,
Ulaanbaatar is 2nd most PM10-polluted city in the world.

My Research Questions:
What is UB PM made of?
What are the major sources of UB PM?
How does black carbon change with time?
How does UB PM affect regional climate?

** However, the project I am about to describe is NOT FUNDED by NSF,
USAID, or Fulbright.
It is a public outreach initiative.
It and has been done on free time because we feel it is IMPORTANT.**

Sharing Air Quality Data (and basics) through Social Media
Public awareness MATTERS!
(1) ACCESS to timely AQ data can help the public make informed health decisions.
(2) ACCESS to the available AQ data and basics EMPOWERS UB’ers to focus more effort on air quality monitoring.
![Page 14: UB Citizens: Let’s get addicted to air quality data Christa Hasenkopf @UB_Air Photo Credit: Lauren Knapp December](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070307/551ab3eb550346856e8b501d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Mitigation measures are just half of the equation….
New Stoves
Ger Apts Alt. Fuels
Electric Stoves
Modifying Ignition

Long-term, successful pollution reduction is feedback cycle:
Mitigation Measures
Air quality monitoringAnd the public can influence strengthening
this cycle in UB!

How the public access to data shapes air quality monitoring
PM10 PM2.5
= just 0.12% of Beijing’s population.
More transparent data

How the public access to data shapes UB air quality monitoring
Within 6 weeks of having these sites running and because of the show of public support:
- Received international and local media attention
- And some more good news at the end….
- Met/Scheduled with community leaders to discuss air quality
![Page 24: UB Citizens: Let’s get addicted to air quality data Christa Hasenkopf @UB_Air Photo Credit: Lauren Knapp December](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070307/551ab3eb550346856e8b501d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The PUBLIC has influenced this cycle!
Mitigation Measures
Air quality monitoringBut this needs to just be the beginning…

It is rated by an internationally-accepted standard- Ex: “N95” rating by the USA: has been
Certified by an independent lab toRemove 95% of PM 0.3 microns and larger(so covers PM2.5 and PM10)
How do you know a PM mask works?
Does it fit well?
Vague/non-specific statements like “removes smoke and dust” etc. do not help you evaluate how effective a mask is.

Update as of 31 Dec 2012:
Great news! We have finalized a funding agreement between the Lodoysamba Research Group at the National University of Mongolia Great news! We have finalized a funding agreement between the Lodoysamba Research Group at the National University of Mongolia and Oyu Tolgoi LLC / Оюу Толгой ХХК to get our own automatically facebook-posting, tweeting air quality instrument! It won't be live for several months, but we're also excited that we will be collaborating with local air quality agencies, to automatically share data they collect, too! We are excited to have an instrument like this that will contribute to public knowledge of air pollution as well a provide a new way for students at NUM to get hands on experience with scientific equipment! Thank-you very much to Oyu Tolgoi for the funding! And thank YOU for supporting us - YOU, the UB public, helped make this happen!
