Analysis Results of Greenhouse Gas and Meteorology Data Obtained During Pandemic Period Using Developed Dynamic Monitoring Station

English (OpenAlex)

Greenhouse gases are one of the most significant problems created by humanity to improve living standards. Along with the industrial revolution, the growth of cities around the world is increasing with an increase in vehicle use, industrialization and corresponding shortcomings in planning and environmental regulations. Measurement of greenhouse gas emissions is vital for tackling global warming, assessing carbon budgets, improving climate models, and assessing climate feedbacks of natural emissions. In this study a greenhouse gas and meteorology measurement station is developed to monitor ozone, methane, ammonia, nitrogen dioxide, chlorine, smoke, carbon monoxide, temperature, wind and humidity in Ankara, Turkey. Station is developed using low-cost sensors and IOT platform. Station is proved to be reliable and efficient. Measurement data were stored between 17.01.2021-02.05.2021, which includes the full closure bans due to the pandemic and the processes in which the bans were lifted, and the analysis results are presented in this study.
