Observations, data analysis and modelling studies on air pollution in Turkey

Abstract

In this study, some of the work that was carried out in Turkey on air pollution is assessed. First of all, legal arrangements made on air pollution and control of air pollution are reviewed. The observations made on air pollution are classified into four major categories. The studies, in which emissions data obtained from the observations are analysed, examined splitting them up into three groups. It is realised that the studies on modelling of air pollution, although extensive, are rather insufficient.
