hye...hello to all my friend...this is new about effects of air pollution..before this i give you all three effects. so now i can give you eingh effects. Firstly, air pollution can effect to people. It is because air pollution can cause short-term effects such as for eye and throat irritation. Beside that, air pollution also cancer and damage to the body’s immune, neurological, reproductive and respiratory systems. Next, it also for children. For examples due their size and the fact that they are in the process of developing are at greater health related risk. (source: http://answer.yahoo.com/question/index?qid. Secondly air pollution can effect to animals, and plant-life. Pollutants such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, ozone and peroxyacl nitrate (PANs), because direct damage to leaves of crop plants and trees when they enter leaf pores (stomachs). Chronic exposure of leaves and needles to air pollutants can also break down the waxy coating that helps prevent excessive water loss and damage from disease, pests, drought and frost.

Air pollution causes atmospheric effects including reductions in visibility, changes in urban climatologically characteristics, increased frequency of rainfall and attendant meteorological phenomena, changes in the chemical characteristics of precipitation, reduction in stratospheric ozone levels, and global warming.

Next, health can effects of air pollution, because the people will difficulty in breathing, wheezing, coughing and aggravations of existing respiratory and cardiac condition. Individuals with respiratory difficulties associated with asthma, bronchitis, and sinusitis experience increased discomfort as a result of oxidants, nitrogen oxides, and particulates.

Acute exposures result from accidental releases of pollutants or air pollution episodes. (source: edited by David H. F. liu, Bela G. Liptak, Lewis Publisher,2000). Air pollution can effects biodiversity. For example, a prolonged exposure of the vegetation in the San Bernardino Mountains in Southern California to photochemical oxidants has shifted the vegetation dominance from ozone sensitive pines to ozone-tolerant oaks and deciduous shrubs. Air pollution can effects on biodiversity are difficult to the document. Unlike habitat destruction, which results in pronounced and rapid environmental changes, the effects of air pollution on biota are usually subtle and elusive because of their interactions with natural stressors. (source: edited by David H. F. liu, Bela G. Liptak, Lewis Publisher,2000). Air pollution can effects of wind speed and direction. Horizontal winds play a significant role in the transport and dilution of pollutants. As wind speed increased, the volume of air moving by source in a period of time also increased. If the emission rate is relatively constant, a doubling of the wind speed halves the pollutant concentrations, as the concentration is an inverse function of the wind speed. Pollutant dispersion is also affected by the variability in wind direction. If the wind direction is relatively constant, the same area is continuously exposed to high pollutant levels. If the wind direction is constantly shifting, pollutants are dispersed over are lower. Large changes in wind direction can occur over short periods of time. (source: edited by David H. F. liu, Bela G. Liptak, Lewis Publisher,2000). After that, air pollution can effects to acid rain. Acid rain the phenomenon occurs when sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides from the burning of fossil fuels such as petrol, diesel, and coal combine with water vapor in the atmosphere and fall as rain, snow or fog. These gas can also be emitted from natural sources like volcanoes. Acid rain causes extensive damage to water, forest, soil resources and area human health.

Air pollution gathers in the Earth’s atmosphere, it traps heat and causes average temperatures to rise. It is hard to predict exactly how climate change will affect a particular area. Here are few likely results (according to the anion of Concerned Scientists. (source: http://answer.yahoo. com/guestion/index?qid=
