"Assessment of PM2.5 Patterns in Malaysia Using the Clustering Method" by Ezahtulsyahreen Ab Rahman, Firdaus Mohamad Hamzah et al.
Particulate matter is the parameter of most concern in air quality monitoring in Malaysia. This study discusses the variations and clustering of PM2.5 recorded from 2018 to 2019 at 65 stations of the Continuous Air Quality Monitoring Network of the Malaysian Department of Environment. PM2.5 concentrations were recorded continuously using a tapered element oscillating microbalance. The cluster analysis was conducted using the Agglomerative Hierarchical Cluster (AHC) method. The results show that the daily average of PM2.5 concentrations ranged between 8 and 31 µg m–3. The cluster regions wer...
