Abstract
⺠Series of persistent cold-air pools (CAP) formed in Salt Lake Valley 1 Jan - 20 Feb 2011. ⺠PM2.5 concentrations increased with time and CAP strength. ⺠Within CAPs, ground-level PM2.5 concentrations decreased with altitude. ⺠During 23-30 Jan CAP, rate of increase in PM2.5 concentration was linear at 6 μg (m3 day)â1. ⺠Breakup of CAP on 16 Jan 2011 occurred first at higher elevations.
