Table 4.

Performance metrics (RMSE and R2) comparing model predictions with the closest nearby PM2.5 monitoring observations.

Model Compared to all monitors RMSE (μg/m3) (and R2) Compared to stable monitors (excluding monitors with less than 31 days of observations, 1% of the training data) RMSE (μg/m3) (and R2)
2008–2016 model 5.1 (0.647) 4.2 (0.696)
2008–2018 model 6.2 (0.643) 5.6 (0.581)
