Abstract

An effort to quantify effects of weather in the northern Negev airborne particle concentration and on cross-sectional area so as to permit prediction according to weather, has begun. prediction with measurement are on the order of 94% and 91%, Humidity is the dominant weather parameter, as expected, but only parameter. There is statistical significance too to solar temperature, and wind speed. The empirical model here provides comparing theoretical models of effects of weather on airborne statistics with real-world phenomena. It is suggested that well be applicable elsewhere, since the newly airborne small fraction of the total airborne amount.
