Air Pollution Sources and Their Impact on the Environment

A study on air pollution in Vilnius Historic Centre reveals declining levels of particulate matter (PM10) and carbon monoxide (CO), while nitrogen dioxide (NO2) concentrations remained relatively stable from January 2020 to December 2022. The research highlights the predominant anthropogenic sources, such as vehicle emissions and industrial activities, and emphasizes the role of geographic information systems (GIS) in monitoring pollution and identifying hotspots. A calculation model developed in MatLab was used to assess pollution trends, underscoring the importance of government regulations, technological advancements, and public participation in mitigating air quality impacts on public health and the environment.
