Size-Segregated Particulate Matter Down to PM<sub>0.1</sub> and Carbon Content during the Rainy and Dry Seasons in Sumatra Island, Indonesia

Size-segregated particulate matter (PM) including the PM<sub>0.1</sub> fraction, particles ≤0.1 µm, was monitored during the rainy and dry seasons at three different cities in Sumatra island, Indonesia in 2018. In order to identify possible emission sources, carbonaceous components in th...
