Relationship between air pollutants and some meteorological parameters in Erzurum, Turkey

Abstract

Air pollution may be defined as an atmospheric problem, which results in the deterioration of the environmental quality. The problem occurs within the atmospheric planetary boundary layer under the combined effects of meteorological parameters, earth surface topographic features and releases air pollutants from various sources. Meteorological parameters affect ambient air pollution in numerous ways. The most important role of the meteorology is in the dispersion, transformation, and removal of air pollutants from the atmosphere.
