Tujuan mengendalikan kajian ini adalah untuk mengkaji samaada perbezaan ketinggian dari paras laut mempengaruhi kepekatan zarah-zarah halus (PM10). Kepekatan zarah-zarah halus ini telah direkodkan di tiga ketinggian berbeza dari paras laut yang terletak di Bukit Jambul dan Batu Feringgi. Kedua-dua lokasi ini telah dipilih sebagai kawasan kajian. Setiap lokasi mempunyai tiga titik kajian. Bacaan kepekatan diambil menggunakan E-SAMPLER. Ketinggian merangkumi 7m, 15m dan 25m dari paras laut. Data kepekatan pada waktu puncak pagi dan petang diambil di tiga titik kajian untuk setiap lokasi. Ini bermakna, setiap titik kajian akan menghasilkan dua set data. Kepekatan direkodkan dalam tempoh masa selama sejam. Analisis menggunakan perisian statistic digunakan untuk mengkaji perbezaan di antara kepekatan bagi setiap perbezaan ketinggian, lokasi, waktu puncak dan kawasan sekeliling kajian. Keputusan analisis menunjukkan bahawa kepekatan adalah berbeza pada waktu puncak dan kawasan sekeliling kajian. Kepekatan zarah-zarah halus juga dipaparkan dalam bentuk peta.

The purpose of conducting this research is to determine whether elevation affects the concentration of particulate matter (PM10). Concentrations of particulate matter (PM10) have been recorded over three different elevations from sea level in Bukit Jambul and Batu Feringgi. These two locations were taken as the study area. Each location has three study points. Measurements were carried out using a new standard in real-time apparatus called
E-SAMPLER system. Elevations were covered at 7m, 15m and 25m from the sea level. Data during morning and afternoon peak hour are taken at three study points for each study point which means there were two sets of data recorded. The measured concentration data is carried out for a period of one hour. Analysis using statistics software is used to see whether there were significance differences between concentrations at different elevations, locations, peak hour and study areas. The result shows that there were significance differences between study areas and peak hour. Concentration of PM10 is also visualized in the form of map.
