This course briefly introduces the causes and effects of air pollution in Asian, chemometric models and chemometric application. This course briefly introduces the causes and effects of air pollution. Air pollution is a growing concern the we experience in our daily life. But not everyone has a clear understanding of what the sources of air pollution are. Here, you will not only learn how to identify them, but also understand the potential impact air pollution has in our present and future.
