Unavailable without enough PM2.5 or a recent clean background window.
Local PM10/PM2.5 ratio
1.6
Not enough clean hours; using a conservative operational ratio.
This attribution is indicative only: it uses a simple rule based on AOD and PM2.5 to separate local background from Saharan contribution, and it may under- or over-estimate complex episodes.
