Ambient Particulate Matter Air Pollution in Mpererwe District, Kampala, Uganda: A Pilot Study

Air quality in Kampala, the capital of Uganda, has deteriorated significantly in the past two decades. We made spot measurements in Mpererwe district for airborne particulate matter PM(2.5) (fine particles) and coarse particles. PM was collected on Teflon-membrane filters and analyzed for mass, 51 e...
