Abstract. This work presents a novel approach to compare and graphically represent simultaneous concentration measurements of PM10, PM2.5 and PM1 (i.e., aerosol particles with aerodynamic diameters less than 10, 2.5 and 1 μm, respectively) with similar data reported in literature using PM2.5/PM10 and PM1/PM10 concentration ratios. To this aim, a dedicated triangular diagram was used. The proposed approach was applied to size-segregated PM concentrations recorded in Agri Valley (Basilicata Region – southern Italy). Results shows that the PM10, PM2.5 and PM1 concentrations recorded in the Agri Valley are comparable both in terms of PM concentration ratios and PM levels to an urban site.
