Wind rose obtained from the weather station co-located with the MOUDI sampler for the 96-hour sampling period starting on October 14, 2009 (corresponding to data in Figures 6 to 8). The results show a relatively high frequency of high wind speeds (> 3 m/s) from the WNW direction, which corresponds with the orientation of the mine tailings with respect to the sampler.
