Abstract

NO*, SC>2, and TSP concentration levels from a monitoring network in the 'Campo de Gibraltar' region and their contributing sources Francisco Javier Gonzalez Gallero^ Isidro Lloret Galiana^ Octavio Ariza Sanchez^ Departamento de Matemdticas, EUP de Algeciras, Avenida Ramon Pujol, s/n. 77202 Abstract In this paper an analysis of the NOx, SO2 and TSP (Total Suspended Particles) concentration levels measured by a monitoring network in the 'Campo de Gibraltar' region is developed. Several statistical and graphical techniques are applied in order to describe the air quality situation and the likely contributing sources to air pollution in the area. 1 Introduction In the 'Campo de Gibraltar' region, several air pollution episodes attributed to the industrial sources in the region took place. These situations were especially related to increases in the TSP levels which affected the residential and rural areas near the industrial site. As a
