Question 5

Some geography students have been conducting environmental geography fieldwork near a busy transport corridor. They were investigating how air quality changes at increasing distances from a major motorway. Some of their results are shown in the table below.

Table 1: Particulate matter ( $PM_{2.5}$ ) levels along a transect

Sampling Point	Distance from motorway edge	Reading 1	Reading 2	Reading 3
A	20m	54.2	51.0	58.7
B	40m	38.5	41.2	39.0
C	60m	22.1	24.8	21.3
D	80m	12.4	10.9	11.5
