The 1978 NRL Air Quality Data.

Abstract

This report is a summary of the air quality data measured at NRL for the calendar year 1978. This annual summary is part of a continuing series of yearly reports initiated in 1975. The variables measured at the NRL air monitoring station include ozone, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, total hydrocarbons, methane, carbon monoxide, wind speed, and wind direction. The instruments used to measure these variables are interfaced to the data acquisition system which in turn is coupled to a magnetic tape recorder. The data input is for one month on the tape which is subsequently analyzed by the air quality computer program at the NRL Research Computer Center and results in a monthly computer printout of the air quality data. Each monthly computer printout is then analyzed and a digest of the information obtained is reported as the yearly summary. (Author)
