During the winters of 2006/2007 and 2007/2008, PM2.5 source apportionment programs were carried out within five western Montana valley communities Filter samples were analyzed for mass and chemical composition information was utilized in a Chemical Mass Balance (CMB) computer model to apportion the sources of PM2.5 Results showed that wood smoke (likely residential woodstoves) was the major source of PM2.5 in each of the communities, contributing from 56% to 77% of the measured wintertime PM2.5 Results of C-14 analyses showed that between 44% and 76% of the measured PM2.5 came from a new carbon (wood smoke) source, confirming the results of the CMB modeling In summary, the CMB model results, coupled with the C-14 results, support that wood smoke is the major contributor to the overall PM2.5 mass in these rural, northern Rocky Mountain airsheds throughout the winter months (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved
