Asthma deaths in Seoul peaked on the third, fifth, and second days after the PM concentration exceeded the daily average concentration standard. We classified the synoptic meteorological conditions, based on the days involving such cases, into three categories. Type 1 included the meteorological condition likely to cause high air pollution concentrations in the leeward region, the dominant wind direction of which is the northwest. Type 2 included the meteorological condition likely to cause high air pollution concentrations due to the weak wind velocity under stable atmospheric conditions. Type 3 was when the passage low atmospheric pressure and the expansion of high atmospheric pressure occurred at the rear, indicating a meteorological condition likely to cause high air pollution, in certain regions. Type 1 occurred 11 times, with high concentrations of over $100{\mu}g/m^3$ being observed in the southeastern part of Seoul. Type 2 occurred 24 times, often accompanied by a PM concentration of $100{\sim}400{\mu}g/m^3$. Type 3 occurred 11 times, and was accompanied by several days of yellow dust that accounted for the highest concentrations.

To effectively develop and evaluate air pollution control measures, health risk rates due to air pollution must be identified. This article describes the application of a visual analysis and an air pollution-health risk model for determining the impacts of carbon monoxide (CO) exposure on angina pectoris patients in a metropolitan area. The procedures used for analyzing the relationship between CO exposure and the related increase in angina angina attacks for stable angina pectoris patients are described through a case study in the city of Seoul, Korea and the findings show that air-pollution-health risk model and visual analysis can be effective tools for environmental decision-makers, allowing air pollution control scenarios to be developed and evaluated for environmental protection. One of the features of this study is to provide a methodology for translating clinical findings into estimates of the relative contributions of air pollution to all causes of a particular disease. Therefore, there must be appropriate recognition of the uncertainties involved in the study.

Motor vehicle related air pollution has become more serious because of rapid increase of number of cars, specially in the urban area. The increase trend seems to be accelerated, however, the fact is that road conditions, parking facilities and traffic control systems are far behind coping with this situation. In spite of the lack of related basic data, urban transportation planning (UPT) and air pollution dispersion models were applied to predict air pollution level. In standard UPT model, trip generation, distribution, modal split and network assignment were estimated by experimental equations and appropriate models. The air pollution level in the central business area was believed to be higher and it will increase continuously due to the increase of traffic demand. To meet this situation, air pollution problem should be considered as a part of integrated plannings of urban plans or transportation plans as well as more stringent motor vehicle emission standards, have to be enforced.

To evaluate the short term air pollution dispersion model, the diffusion experiment was conducted on the flat terrain near Chuncheon. Sulfur hexafluoride $(SF_6)$ gas was used to determine the horizontal spread of plume $(\sigmay)$ for calculated by CRSTER model. Results show that CRSTER model underestimates $\sigma$y because averaging time adjustment is not applied to calculate the $\sigma$y. The scheme that can estimate the atmospheric stability more accurate than Turner method, was presented.

In this paper a adaptive LMS(least mean-square) lattice predictor, which is composed of the adaptive lattice algorithm and LMS algorithm by Widrow-Hopf, is used to predict the future air pollution of the extraordinary levels in the environmental system. This prediction algorithm is applied to the one-step forward prediction of atmospheric CO concentration by using real observed data. Computer simulation proves that the power in the forward error sequences decreases as the number of stages in the lattice is increased.

Green technology encompasses a growing group of methods and materials, from techniques for generating energy and alternative resources to non-toxic cleaning products. Green technology is expected to solve current problems in atmospheric environment such as climate changes due to green house gases and hazardous air pollutants. This paper provides a review on the status of green technology and policy guidelines in Korea as well as the green technology for air pollutants. It presents the R&D projects and future direction in atmospheric environment, and the green technology in mobile source air pollution. Emerging green technology contributes to sustainable growth and development of atmospheric environmental industry for better air quality.

To identify the effects of air pollution on several physiological characteristics of Styrax japonica in Yeochon industrial comples soil properties photosynthetic capacity and chorophyll contents were investigated. All of these measurements were taken on Styrax japonica stand at 1. 3 and 7km from an industrial complex which is an air pollution source. In addition a Styrax japonica stand in Sang-ju city was selected as a control Each physiological measurement was in leaves of east-, west- south- and north-facing branches. The results obtained were as follows: 1) Al contents of soil in Yeochon industrial complex were higher than those of Sang-ju city a non-polluted area. higheral contents contributed to decrease in soil pH. 2) Chlorophyll contents of leaves at 1km from the industrial complex closest from the air pollution source were lower than those of 3 and 7km/ 3) Photosynthetic capacity of Styrax japonica at 1km from the air pollution source was lower than those at 3 and 7km.

The temporal and spatial distribution of atmospheric transmissivity and depletion rate of solar radiation are investigated, and are compared to the concentration of several components of air pollution. The length of the data span is 11 years from 1983 to 1993. The data of radiation and sunshine rate recorded at 20 meteorological standard stations were used, and in order to investigate a relationship between the depletion rate of solar radiation and air pollution, the concentration data of air pollution observed in Seoul, Pusan, Taegu, Taejon and Kwangju were compiled from 1991 to 1993. Regression coefficient a and b vary from 0.100 to 0.209, from 0.464 to 0.691, and their means are 0.163 and 0.533, respectively. Climatological atmospheric transmissivity is ranged from 0.68 to 0.83, and its mean is 0.75. Atmospheric transmissivity is relatively low in Pusan, Taejon, Kwangju and Inchon which have large population and are highly industrialized. However, that in Chinju, Mokpo, Cheju and Sosan appears to be large compared to the aforementioned stations. Insolation rate of clear days varies from 0.71 to 0.58, and its mean is 0.63. Insolation rate of Kangnung and Chinju are higher than those of Seoul and Pusan by 5%. From the correlation coefficients between depletion rate of solar radiation and air pollution concentration, the most significant factors related to the depletion rate of solar radiation is appeared to be TSP followed by $SO_2$. Ozone shows a negative correlation, End $NO_2$ does not show a obvious correlation with the depletion rate of solar radiation.
