Abstract
Currently, air pollution in cities is one of the most important environmental issues worldwide, and extensive research has shown that urban air pollution has harmful effects on human health and the environment. New research, using advances in computer and atmospheric sciences, provides new opportunities to investigate the health effects associated with air pollution. This study also focused on studying the relationship between influential climate elements and parameters such as carbon monoxide (CO) and sulfur dioxide (SO2). The research method is applied research and analytical software research based on the nature of satellite images from various sensors including Sentinel 5 for different time periods and filtering days with cloud data related to atmospheric pollutants carbon monoxide and sulfur dioxide were extracted in the Googleearthengine environment monthly. Then, in the Minitab software environment, it was analyzed using the Pearson correlation coefficient. The results showed that among the various climate elements, monthly precipitation had the highest correlation of 31% and albedo had the lowest correlation of 9.5% with carbon monoxide, while sulfur dioxide had the highest and lowest correlation with climate elements respectively related to latent heat flux at 34% and shortwave radiation at 14%. The results also showed that some climate variables do not have much influence on the distribution of these pollutants at the provincial level. Considering the increasing population at the provincial level and comprehensive development and various changes, based on the results obtained, it seems very necessary to pay special attention to the issue of air pollution and the role of atmospheric pollutants, and it requires special attention from officials, politicians, and even the public.
