Note: Guideline value exceedences are highlighted in bold.

* This is an estimate of the number of days PM10 concentrations may have exceeded the guideline value if monitoring had been carried out on all days during winter (May to August inclusive). It is extrapolated from the number of measured exceedences and the number of days when monitoring did occur.
