Análisis cuantitativo del material particulado sedimentable con variables metereológicas en 13 estaciones de la ciudad de Ambato

Abstract

The current research consists in an evaluation on the environmental pollution caused by the Sedimentable Particulated Material (SPM) in Ambato city, that was elaborated in order to establish measure that decrease their concentrations. It was done out from January to June 2016 with a monitoring liability wherein 13 points located in: Luis A.

The experimental design was block design with Statgraphics software to find the analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey. The statistical results showed that there is a significant difference in the concentrations at all sampling points, the highest value is recorded in the field of Huachi guy with an average of 1.50 mg/cm² * 30 d in every month. The stations that are governed within the who and TULSMA rules are: ESFORSE (0.413 mg/cm² * 30 d), fire Ingahurco (0.425 mg/cm² * 30 d) and Luis. Martinez (0.458 mg/cm² * 30 d).
