Using remote sensing data and GIS to evaluate air pollution and their relationship with land cover and land use in Baghdad City
The research used the satellite image (Landsat 7 ETM ) within the thermal infrared sixth band (TIR6) and geographic information system (GIS) to determine the air pollution and its relationship with the land cover (LC) and land use (LU) of Baghdad city. Concentration of total suspended particles (TSP), lead (Pb), carbon oxides (CO, CO2), and sulphur dioxide (SO2) were obtained from 22 ground mea...
متن کاملIntercontinental influence of NO[subscript x] and CO emissions on particulate matter air quality
23 Anthropogenic emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx ≡ NO + NO2) and carbon monoxide (CO) 24 affect particulate matter (PM) air quality on an intercontinental scale by changing background 25 concentrations of oxidants (OH, ozone, H2O2) and thus increasing the oxidation rate of sulfur 26 dioxide (SO2) to sulfate and NOx to nitrate. We conduct sensitivity simulations with the GEOS27 Chem chemical t...
متن کاملAssessing the Effectiveness of Sulfur Dioxide and Nitrogen Dioxide Pollutants due to Abadan Oil Refinery on Hospital Areas Using CALPUFF Model in 2018: A Descriptive Study
Background and Objectives: Hospitals as one of the most important sensitive populated areas must be located in areas within standard air quality. The aim of this study was assessing Abadan hospitals outdoor air quality affected by oil refinery using CALPUFF (California Puff) model. Materials and Methods: This descriptive study was performed on the dispersion of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitroge...
متن کاملModeling of sulfur dioxide emissions in Ahvaz City, southwest of Iran during 2013
Sulfur dioxide has two important sources in the atmosphere and this is why most of scientists believe in a geographic split in the globe. Power plants, major emitter of SO2, are located in north hemisphere such as in Russia, China, Canada and the USA. In south hemisphere, phytoplankton produces a massive amount of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and dimethyl disulfide (DMDS). Then these types of reduced...
متن کاملAn overview of emissions of SO2 and NOx and the long-range transport of oxidized sulfur and nitrogen pollutants in East Asia.
The long-range transport of oxidized sulfur (sulfur dioxide (SO2) and sulfate) and oxidized nitrogen (nitrogen oxides (NOx) and nitrate) in East Asia is an area of increasing scientific interest and political concern. This paper reviews various published papers, including ground- and satellite-based observations and numerical simulations. The aim is to assess the status of the anthropogenic emi...
