The event of high concentration of aerosols in Bangkok and its suburb during January-February, 2019 was investigated using ground and satellite-based data. The Hybrid Single Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory Model (HYSPLIT) was also used for the investigation. The results from the investigation implied that the presence of high concentration of aerosols in Bangkok and its suburb during that period was likely due to the cross-boundary aerosols produced from biomass-burning in Cambodia.
