About this document
PM2.5 Levels and Traffic in Bangkok COVID-19 by Dj Clarrio is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses changes in mobility and air pollution levels in Bangkok during the COVID-19 lockdown. It finds that mobility decreased by 48% while PM2.5 levels dropped significantly. Traffic, which normally contributes 35-50% of PM2.5, was down 70%. This suggests traffic is a major contributor to air pollution in Bangkok. The lockdown provided an opportunity to see how reducing traffic can improve air quality. Continued efforts are needed to further lower traffic emissions and urban air pollution.
