In recent years, air pollution and deterioration of visibility due to PM 2.5 have become a serious issue. In cooperation with Dr. Kazuo Osada (Nagoya University), we have been conducting research on relation between air pollution and visibility since April 2014. As a part of it, in August in 2016, we set up equipment in our school and have continuously collected data of atmospheric pollutants, for instance PM 2.5, PM 10, and weather data since then.

With this data, we analyzed whether or not atmospheric pollutants are affected by the surrounding weather elements. Fourier analysis and multiple regression analysis were used for the analysis. As a result, we found that the influence of PM 2.5 decreases when the wind is strong.
