Atmospheric Electrical Parameters and Their Variations: A Review on Ecological and Air Pollution Impacts
Main Article Content
Authors
Abstract
Atmospheric electrical parameters, including electric field, ion concentrations, and conductivity, play a crucial role in understanding environmental changes. This review explores the relationship between these parameters and ecological as well as air pollution variations. Various factors such as particulate matter, gaseous pollutants, and meteorological conditions influence atmospheric electricity. The study also highlights the implications of these variations on climate and ecosystem stability. Future research directions are proposed to improve monitoring and predictive capabilities.
