| Summary: | Abstract This article discusses the possibility of using summary calculations as a standard for assessing the quality of the city air. Murmansk, like many industrialized Arctic cities, has its own specifics of development, which leads to an increase in the concentration of pollutants in the urban atmosphere, which negatively affects the health of the population and the urban environment quality. There is an air quality management system In Russia, but for many reasons it is imperfect. At the same time, along with it, there is a practice of applying summary calculations to assess air pollution by emissions from road transport and industrial facilities, which allows getting a more detailed picture of the atmospheric air quality. The authors of this article compared the results of assessing of pollutants distribution in the atmosphere of Murmansk city, obtained by using of summary calculations and actual indicators of hazardous components content in the air. The objectivity of summary calculations maps and the possibility of their use for predicting the distribution of air pollution in Murmansk are determined. |
