Gaps indicate that an instrument was not online for that period OR an average could not be calculated as there were not enough valid hourly data values OR that a pollutant is not measured at the site. Data from monitoring sites is collected, stored and shown in reports using Australian Eastern Standard time (AEST). Normally data for any hour should be available approximately 30 minutes later. During daylight saving, please be aware that the actual local time equals the displayed time plus 1 hour
