  2. Parts-per notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parts-per_notation

    At 1 ppm the solution is a very pale yellow. As the concentration increases the colour becomes a more vibrant yellow, then orange, with the final 10,000 ppm a deep red colour. In science and engineering , the parts-per notation is a set of pseudo-units to describe small values of miscellaneous dimensionless quantities , e.g. mole fraction or ...

  3. Useful conversions and formulas for air dispersion modeling

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Useful_conversions_and...

    Here are the conversion factors for those various expressions of wind speed: 1 m/s = 2.237 statute mile/h = 1.944 knots 1 knot = 1.151 statute mile/h = 0.514 m/s 1 statute mile/h = 0.869 knots = 0.447 m/s. Note: 1 statute mile = 5,280 feet = 1,609 meters

  4. Air pollutant concentrations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_pollutant_concentrations

    The conversion equations depend on the temperature at which the conversion is wanted (usually about 20 to 25 °C). At an ambient sea level atmospheric pressure of 1 atm (101.325 kPa or 1.01325 bar), the general equation is:

  5. Ambient air quality criteria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambient_air_quality_criteria

    Criteria can be set in different units (e.g. μg/m 3, parts per billion by volume (ppbv), parts per billion by mass (ppb (mass)), parts per million (ppm)) and it is possible to convert between all of these units if the molecular mass of the pollutant and the temperature are known. Different standard temperatures are used throughout the world ...

    The examples don't seem to be too accurate. A drop is usually defined as 0.05 ml, which then gives;. 1 drop in 50 ml = 1‰, 50ml is a very small cup 1 drop in 50 l = 1ppm 50 l is about 11 gallons, not 40 1 drop in 50 cubic metres = 1 ppb 1 drop = 1ppt, a 50 m swimming pool is 50*25*2 = 2,500 m^3 1 drop in 50,000,000 cubic metres = 1ppq, 50,000,000 m^3 is equivalent to a lake covering a square ...

  7. Carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide_in_Earth's...

    The concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere are expressed as parts per million by volume (abbreviated as ppmv, or ppm(v), or just ppm). To convert from the usual ppmv units to ppm mass (abbreviated as ppmm, or ppm(m)), multiply by the ratio of the molar mass of CO 2 to that of air, i.e. times 1.52 (44.01 divided by 28.96).

    The atmospheric methane concentration has continued to increase since 2011 to an average global concentration of 1911.8 ± 0.6 ppb as of 2022. [16] The May 2021 peak was 1891.6 ppb, while the April 2022 peak was 1909.4 ppb, a 0.9% increase. [55] Annual atmospheric methane concentrations from 1990 to 2021.
