ABSTRACT

Variation in the levels of different pollutants i.e., Carbon Monoxide, Suspended Particulate Matter and Respirable Suspended Particulate Matter at different sites shows the location and meteorological effects, which may be attributed to varying nature and quantum of emissions from stationary and mobile sources, wind pattern and transported pollution load from other sources / areas etc. It is further supported by analysis of variance of monthly SPM & RSPM data which revealed significant variation between sites and between months.

Keywords: Carbon Monoxide, Suspended Particulate Matter and Respirable Suspended Particulate Matter.
