BACKGROUND The centralization of human activities is associated with different pollutants which enter into environment easily and cause the urban environment more vulnerable. Regarding the importance of air pollution issue for Tehran metropolis, many plans and regulations have been developed. However, most of them failed to decline the pollution. The purpose of this study was to pathologically ...

IN T R O D U C T IO N In recent years there has been a growing concern about the rapidly deteriorating environment in the urban areas of this country in terms of air, water, and noise pollution. Automobile transportation has been found to be a significant factor in the deterioration of the urban environment, particularly in regard to air pollution. In general, con­ sidering the total tonnage of...

background: composition of dust in the air due to contact with human via inhalation, ingestion and skin absorption will have a large impact on public health. in the learning environments such as universities, many people spend most of their day in contact with the dust. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the concentration of heavy metals lead, chromium and copper in the training space of...

objective: there are many communities at risk by a series of air pollution episodes. tehran is one of the most polluted cities in the world. the presence of one or more air pollutants with a certain concentration in a particular period of time can cause several adverse effects on human and animals’ well-being that can cause much morbidity. there are several pollutants in the air but some of the...

Over the last decades with the rapid growth of industrial zones, manufacturing plants and the substantial urbanization, environmental pollution has become a crucial health, environmental and safety concern. In particular, due to the increased emissions of various pollutants caused mainly by human sources, the air pollution problem is elevated in such extent where significant measures need to be...

Quality evaluation of urban environment is an integral part of efficient urban environment planning and management. The development of fuzzy set theory (FST) and the introduction of FST to the urban study field attempts to incorporate the gradual variation and avoid loss of information. Urban environmental quality assessment pertain to interpretation and forecast of the urban environmental qual...

In atmospheric chemistry, interactions between air pollution, the biosphere and human health, often through reaction mixtures from both natural and anthropogenic sources, are of growing interest. Massive pollution emissions in the Anthropocene have transformed atmospheric composition to the extent that biogeochemical cycles, air quality and climate have changed globally and partly profoundly. I...
