Air quality and particulate assessment in wood-heated military tents during arctic field training: implications for health and environmental safety
Figure 1 Fine (PM2.5) and Coarse (PM10) particulate matter (PM) levels in the tent for the sensor placed on the ground, over a 12-hour overnight period, during which cadets slept in the same tent.Very hazardous levels were met early in the night and declined over time.PM10 had a higher peak of dangerous levels and also showed a sharper decline compared to PM2.5.
