Abstract

The aim of this study is to survey the concentrations of air pollutants in rural and urban areas in Ahvaz city during two seasons. We used ANOVA to determine the differences between the areas. Paired t-test was used to compare the concentrations of the air pollutants in cold season and hot season. The concentration of the air pollutants in cold season was higher than warm season except for O3. Mobile vehicles represent the major source of air pollution in many areas, and the concentrations of traffic pollutants are greater near urban areas. The trend of changes in PM concentration in cold and warm seasons depends on dust storms occurrence.
