Abstract
Air pollution, which is both an input and an output of climate change, is an important environmental problem that affects living life and environmental balance. Air pollution has a negative effect on live health and the environment. Air pollutant limit values in Europe have been significantly reduced in recent decades, resulting in improved air quality. But the values of air pollutants are still quite high and problems with air quality continue. The measured values of air pollutants determined by legal regulations should be monitored regularly and planned, and emergency response mechanisms should be put in place when it adversely affects live health. Therefore, in this study, it is aimed to determine and evaluate the air quality levels of Mus province between 2012 and 2021. In the study, PM10 and SO2 parameters were calculated as year, season, month and hourly values and measurements were compared with each other. PM10 (40 μg m-3) and SO2 (20 μg m-3) were generally found to exceed the annual average values set out in the Air Quality Assessment and Management Regulation.
