Statistical Aspects and the Extimation Scheme of the Short Term Concentration of Air Pollution

大氣汚染濃度의 發生頻度特徵 및 推定法 評價

The aspects of the occurence frequency of $SO_2$ concentration were studied with the observed data in Seoul and the scheme that is capable of estimating not only highest concentration for a variety of averaging times but also concentrations for arbitary occurrence frequency with long term arithmatic mean and geometric standard deviation data, was evaluated. The results of the statistical analysis show that the occurrence frequency is almost log normal except a few cases, and 3rd highest values of daily mean concentration were about 4.2 $\sim$ 5.2 times higher than annual arithmatic mean. The evaluation with the observed hourly concentration shows that the scheme fairly well estimate the short concentration of arbitary occurrence frequence and it can be used for air quality management and environmental impact assessment.
