The most significant fraction of suspended particulate matter is the respirable size, i.e. larger than about 0.1 [microns], and smaller than about 5-10 [microns]. Particles in this size range persist in the atmosphere longer than other sizes. This size range is significant not only in respect of health, but also in causing reduced visibility and entering into atmospheric reactions. Furthermore, the proportion of suspended particulate matter in the fine particulate's size range will increase as present abatement techniques are implemented. 1, record 1, English, - size%20range
