Correlation Analysis
Maps showing locations of highly correlatedmonitors, as defined in the MNA Report.Monitors correlated above regression criteria (R2>0.8, average concentration within 10%, 15% for NO2)

Tabular data
Monitor Correlation Tables
Monitor-to-monitor correlation analysis
Plot Archive
Plot Archive file name convention: monitor1_monitor2_parameter_R_D_N.png, where monitor1 and monitor2 are the IDs for the monitors being compared, parameter is monitored parameter, R is the correlation coefficient, D is the distance (km) between monitor pairs, and N is the number of data points in the comparison.
Correlograms
Plot Archive
Plot Archive file name convention: parameter_airshed_n.png, for example NO2_2_250.png refers to correlograms for NO2 monitors in airshed #2 using monitor pairs with at least 250 (n>=250) data points for comparison. Plots with "dw" have an inverse distance weighting function applied to the curve fit.
Representative Area
Gap Analysis
Maps showing monitor locations, O&G wells, population centers. PM2.5 maps show Class I Areas.
Colorado
O3 NO2 O3&NO2 PM2.5 (O3 and NO2 maps include well locations for 'approved and pending' permits)
