An analysis of atmospheric stability indices and parameters under air pollution conditions.

The stability of the atmosphere plays an important role in changes in air pollutant concentrations. Stable atmospheric conditions cause pollutant concentrations to reach high values, which degrades the air quality in a particular region. This study aims to reveal the relationship between atmospheric stability indices/parameters (thermodynamic indices) and changes in air pollutant concentrations.

Analysing of atmospheric conditions and their effects on air quality in Istanbul using SODAR and CEILOMETER.

In this study, first, air pollution that is caused by the air pollutants' concentration exceeding the limit value in Istanbul between 2017 and 2020 were analysed. In addition to this analysis, the effects of meteorological parameters on pollution were also examined within the same period of time. Second, for a 14-day period during which the concentration values of the air pollutants were calculated higher than the standards, therefore, were selected as an episode.
