ATMOSPHERIC POLLUTION AND SOLAR RADIATION

Atmospheric pollution present interest for monitoring and analysis when one or more substances or mixture of pollutants are present in the atmosphere in quantities or for a period that can be dangerous for humans, animals or plants and contribute to endangering the activity or welfare of persons. The present research was aimed to establish a link between meteorological factors (temperature, wind, atmospherically humidity, solar radiation, air pressure) and the ammonia air pollutant. Particularities of research methodology consisted in establishing a connection between meteorological factors in Bacau area and its air quality, taking into account both direct and inverse effects induced by geographical complexity and economic activities. The correlations between ammonia air pollution and analyzed climatic factors variation were realized by graphical interpretations and observing the appropriate links of dependency. In one of the case (2008.08.20) a better dispersion of pollutants occurs in the case of sunshine duration over a longer period, without or with low nebulosity.

The Rasch Model

Atmospheric pollution is affected by different individual pollutants (IP) and climatic factors (CF). In this work, the formulation of the Rasch model is proposed to get representative measures of atmospheric pollution in two urban locations, Badajoz and Cáceres, and one rural site, the Monfragüe Park (Southwest Spain). After applying the Rasch methodology, the ranking of all days was obtained according to their atmospheric pollution level and the influence on the environmental deterioration of each IP and CF (NO2, NO, SO2, O3, CO, benzene, PM10, precipitation, relative humidity, solar radiation, air temperature, and barometric pressure). The most influential items on atmospheric pollution are the O3 and the CF, mainly the lack of precipitation and those related to ozone generation (air temperature and solar radiation). Other IP exert a lower influence at both urban locations, being irrelevant at the Monfragüe Park. Unexpected behaviors of the CF or IP can be also analyzed.
