Atmospheric Composition Monitoring

Atmospheric Composition Monitoring involves measuring the types and amounts of gases and particles in the air. Using specialized instruments, scientists track pollutants like carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter to assess air quality and identify pollution sources. This data helps understand environmental health, informs policy decisions, and guides efforts to reduce pollution and combat climate change. Monitoring can be done through ground-based stations, satellites, or mobile sensors, providing continuous and comprehensive insights into the composition and changes of the atmosphere over time.
