Abstract

The monthly average concentrations of sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, total oxidants and ammonia over the years 1968-1971, at the BARC site, Bombay are presented. The figures indicate an overall tendency of increasing concentrations year after year.

The sulphur dioxide concentrations as measured by the lead peroxide method at several sites in Greater Bombay over the part few months as monthly averages are also presented. These figures indicate widespread sulphur dioxide pollution with a few pockets with relatively higher concentrations.
