AIR POLLUTION IN TOSHKENT CITY OVER THE LAST DECADE
Keywords:
xAbstract
Toshkent, the capital of Uzbekistan, has experienced significant air pollution challenges over the past decade due to rapid urbanization, industrial growth, and increased vehicular emissions. This study examines the trends in air quality from 2013 to 2023, focusing on key pollutants such as particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and carbon monoxide (CO). Data were collected from government reports, satellite observations, and ground-based monitoring stations. The results indicate a consistent rise in pollutant levels, particularly during winter months, driven by coal combustion for heating and outdated transportation systems. This paper highlights the urgent need for policy interventions, public awareness campaigns, and sustainable urban planning to mitigate the adverse health and environmental impacts of air pollution in Toshkent.
