What Are the Key Components of Pollution Monitoring?
Effective pollution monitoring involves several components:
Sampling: Collection of air, water, soil, and biological samples to identify pollutants. Analysis: Using various analytical techniques such as chromatography, mass spectrometry, and spectroscopy to detect and quantify pollutants. Data Interpretation: Evaluating the results to understand the distribution and concentration of pollutants. Reporting: Sharing findings with stakeholders, including the public and regulatory bodies.
