The Atmospheric Pollution in Urban Italian Cities
نویسنده
چکیده
This contribution regards three fundamental aspects of the urban pollution, sources, diffusion and chemical composition with relative speciation, pointing out the anthropogenic activities and their relationship with the environmental sustainability. The chemical parameters ruled by laws (conventional pollutants) are evidenced together with other species not ruled (no conventional pollutants) but important: scientific researches are addressed to investigate secondary pollutants and micro-inorganic contaminants in atmosphere. Further, a task is devoted to the evaluation and characterization of the carbonaceous component (elemental and organic carbon, EC and OC): in fact, EC can be used as tracer for a speed evaluation of pollution state of an urban environment.

Cities interact with the atmosphere over a wide range of scales from the large-scale processes, which have a direct impact on global climate change, to smaller scales, ranging from the conurbation itself to individual buildings. The review presented in this paper analyzes some of the ways in which cities influence atmospheric thermodynamics and airborne pollutant transport. We present the main ...

متن کاملEnvironmental Surroundings and Personal Well-being in Urban China
We examine the relationship between atmospheric pollution, water pollution, traffic congestion, access to parkland and personal well-being using a survey administered across six Chinese cities in 2007. In contrast to existing studies of the determinants of well-being by economists, which have typically employed single item indicators to measure well-being, we use the Personal Well-Being Index (...
