Abstract:
Man's inadvertent interference with the
environment by way of indiscreL¢ industrflflization
has led to the deteriorating air quality in the recent
times. The search is on to find the remedies to
confine the air pollution levels with in their thershold
limits. Theoretical studies play A crucial role in the
control and for abatment of air pollution. Improper
siting of industry is one of the most common reasons
for the increased levels of air pollution in urban
environments. A proper and effective ecological planning
is an essential first step for any region in order to
reduce the effects of air pollution. By means of
theoretical models one can obtain the pollutant distribution
in any urban area, provided the necessary data
are available with the help of which the sites for new
industries could be suggested, given the emission
inventory. Studies on air pollution meteorology serve
and aid the planners to initate remedial actions to
bring down the levels of pollution and also to out—line
the control strategy. In the present thesis some
theoretical studies on air pollution meteorology over
South India are made. The thesis is divided into
six chapters
