AIR MONITOR I IMG
SURVEY DESIGN


This book provides detailed information
and procedures that can be utilized to
develop cost-effective air monitoring
programs for both industrial concerns
and governmental agencies. It is a complete
guide to this important subject-
covering the design, sample collection,
modeling and data reporting phases of
air quality surveys.
While most books in this field concentrate
solely on instrument or analytical
methods and procedures, Noll and Miller
approach the subject from a broader
perspective. Basic areas covered include:
Survey design based on diffusion models;
methods for air monitoring and meteorological
equipment selection, calibration,
and operation; application of meteorological
principles to air monitoring; and statistical
methods for data presentation and
evaluation.
Separate chapters examine air sample
collection and analysis, instrument calibration,
monitoring hardware sources and
prices, historical data utilization and
monitoring near large individual pollution
sources. New methodologies are presented
that can be used as objective
techniques for air monitoring system design
criteria for point, line and area sensor
siting.
Developed in response to the complex
monitoring surveys needed for the preparation
of environmental impact statements,
this book will be valuable to
engineers, meteorologists, analytical
chemists, statisticians, and federal and
state governmental agencies.
