pollution dome ^^

Cards (25)

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