Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) coupled with Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) was used to analyze particulate matter (PM) in San Miguel de Tucuman, Argentina, a densely populated urban area influenced by agricultural and industrial pollution. This study investigates PM concentration and composition during sugarcane harvest and non-harvest periods (2019-2020), accidentally coinciding with the COVID-19 lockdowns.
