Characterizing outdoor infiltration and indoor contribution of PM2.5 with citizen-based low-cost monitoring data

Jianzhao Bi et al.

Summary: A study in California analyzed 91 consumer-grade PurpleAir indoor/outdoor monitor pairs over a 20-month period to estimate site-specific outdoor PM2.5 infiltration factors using a local polynomial regression method. The research identified a threshold for ambient PM2.5 concentration below which indoor sources significantly contributed to personal exposures.

Calibration of low-cost PurpleAir outdoor monitors using an improved method of calculating PM2.5

Lance Wallace et al.

Summary: Hourly PM2.5 measurements from PurpleAir monitors and nearby EPA stations in California were compared over an 18-month period, using an alternative calculation method (ALT) which outperformed Plantower's estimates. A calibration factor was empirically derived for PurpleAir estimates, showing different responses to wildfire smoke compared to normal ambient PM2.5.
