Evidence from the diagram suggesting pollution Dome occurs at
night
View source
Importance of pollution
Dome
View source
More industrial activity in cities leads to the
release
of
carbon dioxide
and other
greenhouse gases
View source
Greenhouse gases are emitted as
pollutants
They try to rise but are prevented from rising by the presence of an
inversion
above them
View source
Explanation of
pushing down
View source
Definition of a
pollution
Dome
View source
Presence of terrestrialization during the
night
leads to more
pollutants
around the city
View source
Presence of less vegetation in cities leads to less
oxygen
and more
carbon dioxide
concentration
View source
Pollution Dome is mostly concentrated during the
night
View source
Combustion reactions in vehicles lead to the
release
of
pollutants
like
carbon dioxide
View source
Explanation of pollution
Dome formation
View source
How pollution forms increase temperatures in a city
Warm air rises
as terrestrial radiation and is
trapped
by
pollutants
, forming
warm conditions
around the city
View source
Explanation of the
negative
impacts of
pollution
domes on people during
Winter
View source
The stone shape implies that the pollution Dome doesn't
disappear
at
night
View source
During the
night
,
pollutants
are
trapped
and
warm air rises
, forming
warm conditions
around the
city
View source
Negative impacts of pollution domes on people are
greater
in Winter
View source
The pollution Dome is most concentrated at night
Due to the shape
View source
Pollutants
can also form artificial
clouds
above the city,
trapping
terrestrial radiation and
increasing
warm conditions
View source
Reason why pollution domes are more concentrated at night
More
subsiding
cold air during the
night
suppresses the
pollutants
from rising
View source
The pollution Dome is occurring at
night
View source
Success provides
sustainable strategies
to reduce the occurrence of
pollution domes
in cities
View source
Explanation of the
negative
impacts of the
positives
on people living in the city during
winter
View source
Causes of pollution dome
Usage of many
cars
in the cities,
industrial
activities
View source
In
winter
, there are
cold conditions
and strong
subsidence
of
cold air
, leading to
dense
and
cold pollution dome
over the
city
View source
Management and reduction strategies for pollution dome
Encouraging less car usage,
planting more vegetation
, creating
green belts
or
gardens
on
buildings
,
decentralizing industrial activities away
from the
city
