ABSTRACT
Seven air quality basins are classified in Taiwan according to landforms¡Bweather conditions and atmosphere diffusion. The data showed that the percentages of fractional number of days that PSI is greater than 100 (unhealthful) are 11.4%, 10.5% and 15.3% in three parts of Southern Taiwan (including Kaohsiung City, Kaohsiung County and Pintung County) in the years of 1999, 2000and 2001. For Kao-Ping area alone, the percentages of unhealthful days are, 12.1% , 10.7%and 8.2% in recent three years.
The air pollutants in ambient air in Kao-Ping area are particulate matter (PM10) and ozone (O3). Particulate matter (PM10) is a primary pollutant and derivative aerosol, the mainly were factory stack¡Bmobile vehicles¡Bconstruction site and emission the surface of the earth. O3 is a secondary pollutant that is generated by its precursors such as hydrocarbons (HC) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) through complex photo-chemical reactions. Accordingly, attention has been shifted to the source and control of ozone in recently years in southern part of Taiwan, instead of PM10 alone.
In order to improve the air quality, the deteriorated reason and pollution condition must be understood. The purpose of this proposal is thus to identify the O3 trend variation and weather pattern and mixing height. This proposal contains two parts:
Collect the meteorological data (including pressure¡Btemperature¡Bwind velocity¡Bwind direction¡Bhumidity and sunshine time) and air quality data. Then we analyze the relationship between meteorological factors and air quality. Analyze the high O3 episodes based on the characteristics of hourly¡Bmonthly and seasonally data and to investigate the effects of mixing height and Ventilation index on air quality in Kao-Ping area.
