In this study, the variation of tne long-term PM10 concentration from monitoring records in the southwest coast of peninsular Malaysia was analysed. Higher concentration of PM10 was detected in the southwest coast of peninsular Malaysia during the southwest monsoon. This is due to the low level winds that blow southerly or southwesterly during the summer period of peninsular Malaysia that associated with the long-range transportation of aerosol particles to Asian countries. The diurnal trend shows two peaks that can be observed in the morning at 9.00 a.m. and during evening starting at 10.00 p.m. The connection between PM10 concentration and meteorological factors such as ambient temperature, UVB, wind speed and humidity were also studied. The results show positive correlation of PM10 concentration with ambient temperature and negative correlation with humidity for most of the study areas. 2016-03-19T02:24:01Z 2016-03-19T02:24:01Z 2015-09 Article Revista de Chimie, vol.66 (9), 2015, pages 1443-1447 0034-7752 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/41150 en SYSCOM 18 SRL
