Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects of the meteorologic factors on air pollutants and to establish a model of relationship between the meteorologic factors and concentration of air pollutants. Method The data of SO2,NO2 and PM10 concentration in the air and the related meteorologic factors (daily average,maximum and minimum atmospheric pressure and daily atmospheric pressure difference,daily average,maximum and minimum air temperature,monthly rainfall,daily average and minimum relative humidity and wind speed) from January 2002 to December 2007 were collected. The correlation between the air pollutant levels and related meteorologic factors was analyzed by the multiple regression models with SPSS 11.5 software and multiple regression equations were established. Results Minimum relative humidity was negatively correlated with the concentration of SO2 and NO2 in atmosphere . Daily minimum air temperature was negatively correlated with the concentration of NO2 in atmosphere. Daily average relative humidity and wind speed were negatively correlated with the concentration of PM10 in atmosphere. Daily atmospheric pressure difference was positively correlated with the concentration of PM10 in atmosphere. Multiple regression equations of the concentration of SO2,NO2 and PM10 in atmosphere and meteorologic factors have statistical significances. Conclusion The meteorologic factors have some effects on the air pollution levels. By using the correlation of meteorologic factors and the concentration of air pollutions,multiple regression equations can be established.
