Smog is a type of air pollution that is characterized by high levels of ozone, which is formed when sunlight reacts with nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the atmosphere.

Natural sources of air pollution include forest fires, volcanic eruptions, and dust storms. However, the majority of air pollution is caused by human activities, such as motor vehicles, industrial activities, and power plants.

Deposition is the process by which air pollutants are removed from the atmosphere and deposited on the Earth's surface. This can occur through wet deposition (rain or snow) or dry deposition (settling of particles).

Air pollution has been linked to a number of health problems, including asthma, cancer, heart disease, and stroke. However, allergies are not typically caused by air pollution.

Inversion is a meteorological phenomenon where a layer of warm air traps cooler air near the ground, preventing the dispersion of air pollutants. This can lead to high levels of air pollution in valleys or basins.

Sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen dioxide are all common air pollutants that are emitted by human activities. Methane is a greenhouse gas, but it is not typically considered an air pollutant.

Power plants are the primary source of sulfur dioxide emissions, which are produced when fossil fuels are burned to generate electricity.

Using renewable energy sources, improving energy efficiency, and planting trees are all strategies for reducing air pollution. Driving more, on the other hand, will increase air pollution.

Advection is the process by which air pollutants are transported over long distances by the wind.

PM10, PM2.5, and PM1 are all types of particulate matter, which are small particles of solid or liquid matter suspended in the air. PM0.1 is not a recognized type of particulate matter.

Motor vehicles are the primary source of nitrogen dioxide emissions, which are produced when fuel is burned in internal combustion engines.

Particulate matter has been linked to a number of health problems, including respiratory problems, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. However, allergies are not typically caused by particulate matter.

Dilution is the process by which air pollutants are diluted by clean air, reducing their concentration in the atmosphere.

Sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, and mercury are all common air pollutants emitted by industrial activities. Carbon monoxide is primarily emitted by motor vehicles.

Motor vehicles are the primary source of carbon monoxide emissions, which are produced when fuel is burned in internal combustion engines.
