A study on $NO_2$ and TSP levels of the Major Trunk Road in Asan-area

아산지역 도로변의 $NO_2$ 및 TSP 농도에 관한 연구

The atmospheric concentrations of Nitrogen Dioxide ($NO_2$) and Total Suspended Particulates (TSP) at the traffic road side were measured n Asan area, Choongchumg-namdo during May 1998 and January, 1999.The results of the study are as follows;1. The aversge value of airbone $NO_2$ and TSP levels were 28.5ppb and 5.9mg/me in Asan area. 2. The concentration distribution of NO2 and TSP is high for the season of winter. On a daily pattern, somewhat high value is appeared in the afternoon. 3. For the station, terminal, and Shinchang, the average value of $NO_2$ is 33.6ppb, 27.9ppb and 24.1ppb in sequence, and the ones of TSP is 6.3mg/m3, 6.0mg/m3 and 5.3mg/m3 in order.4. The high levels of $NO_2$ and TSP were positively related to traffic volume.
