aims: tehran’s uncontrolled expansion, which promoted housing, public utilities, industries and increase of vehicles caused the problem of air pollution. necessary information about air quality in different places and different times is the first step of combating the air pollution. the purpose of this study was to investigate the annual, monthly and hourly average of 5 criteria air pollutants ...

increasing energy demands associated with economic growth and industrialization have resulted in dramatic increases in air pollution emissions. air pollution damages the plant mainly by disrupting cell homeostatic conditions.in the present study, diverse plant criteria indicating air pollution from different levels including cell biochemistry, leaf and tree crown in the plane-tree were determin...

asthma is one of the most common diseases in childhood, which has been increased during last decade because of epidemiological pattern changes with climate and industrialization of the communities. there are some controversies on the relationship between air pollution and asthma. tehran, as the capital of iran, is one of the densest populations and is one of the most polluted cities in the worl...

background: today, air pollution is one of the major problems in large cities including isfahan. methods: the objective of this study was to investigate the variations of ozone (o3), carbon monoxide (co), nitric oxide (no), nitrogen dioxide (no2), nitrogen oxides (nox), sulphur dioxide (so2), and particulate matter (pm10) concentrations in different months at three stations and also to explore ...

Human alteration of atmospheric composition affects foliar chemistry and has possible implications for the structure and functioning of detrital communities. In this study, we explored the impacts of elevated carbon dioxide and ozone on aspen (Populus tremuloides) leaf litter chemistry, earthworm (Lumbricus terrestris) individual consumption and growth, and springtail (Sinella curviseta) popula...

The irradiation of pure molecular oxygen (O(2)) and carbon dioxide (CO(2)) ices with 5 keV H(+) and He(+) ions was investigated experimentally to simulate the chemical processing of oxygen rich planetary and interstellar surfaces by exposure to galactic cosmic ray (GCR), solar wind, and magnetospheric particles. Deposited at 12 K under ultra-high vacuum conditions (UHV), the irradiated condensa...

The negative corona discharge has been generated in flowing oxygen and carbon dioxide. Electrodes in the reactor were in coaxial geometry. The inner (wire) electrode was made of molybdenum and the outer electrode was made of stainless steel, aluminium or brass. The negative corona discharge has been generated in flowing pure oxygen and carbon dioxide at atmospheric pressure and ambient temperat...
