Abstract

This paper presents information regarding the variation of aerosols concentration in a central area in Galati city. For a period of time of 2 years and 5 months, there have been done correlations between aerosols concentrations with grading classes and the dominant wind directions (E-W, N-NW~S-SE, S~N, N~NE~S-SW).
The results of the measurements are particular for only a point in time, being influenced by random variables (traffic intensity, temperature, pressure, wind speed, humidity etc.).
