Resumen:
Analysis of aerosols collected with the Andersen-Graseby 240 sampler during the annual period: June 2008 ? June 2009. Mass concentrations were obtained by gravimetric analysis. Very low concentration values in winter, increasing for the other seasons. Less standard deviation for the fine fraction. Elemental concentrations were obtained by employing PIXE analysis. Aerosol mass concentrations and elemental concentrations found for fine (PM2.5), coarse (PM2.5-10) and total (PM10) fractions. Silicon is the most abundant element found in the samples (in accordance with the abundance of aluminosilicates and results of previous works).
