IB ESS 8.3.1 Urban air pollutants
Practise naming urban air pollutants, distinguishing primary pollutants, reading emission trends and linking air pollution to monitoring or ecological effects.
How this is tested
- distinguish primary pollutants such as NOx, SO2, CO and particulate matter
- compare pollutant trends in a figure and link patterns to transport emissions or habitat pollution
- describe a direct monitoring method for a named atmospheric pollutant
