Abstract

Air pollution produced from traffic congestion and intense industry is a major problem for inhabitants living in megacities like Istanbul. Children are more susceptible than adults to air pollution and its adverse effects, because they inhale and retain larger amounts of air pollutants per unit of body weight than adults. They spend much of their time outdoor, consequently their exposure to the concentrations of pollutants increases. For this purpose five playgrounds were chosen with respect to proximity to main arteries and size range ($PM _{2,5} and PM _{10}$) between March and December 2009. Ambient air quality monitoring stations are located in each selected playground and measurements are evaluated in the defined periods. According to the results of these measurements; mass concentrations of $PM _{2,5} and PM _{10}$ near main arteries has reached critical limits, near the seaside have lower values, and in the forestland has the concentrations under the air quality limits.

Özet

İstanbul gibi mega Şehirlerde kentleşme sonucu ortaya çıkan yoğun trafik ve endüstrileşme sonucu meydana gelen hava kirliliği burada yaşayan insanlar için önemli problemlerden birini oluşturmaktadır. Bu kirliliğe maruz kalma yetişkinlere kıyasla daha hassas bünyelere sahip olan çocuklarda daha fazla görülmektedir. Vakitlerinin büyük bir bölümünü oyun parklarında geçiren çocukların fiziksel aktivitelerinin de katkısıyla dış ortamdaki kirleticilere maruziyeti de artmaktadır. Bu amaçla çocukların etkisi altında kaldığı hava kirliliğinin önemli parametrelerinden olan $PM _{2,5} ve PM _{10}$ ölçümleri İstanbul'da trafik yoğunluğuna göre seçilmiş 5 farklı çocuk oyun parkında 2009 yılının Mart ve Aralık ayları arasında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Her bir parka ölçüm istasyonu yerleþtirilerek, belirlenen periyotlar doğrultusunda ölçümler yapılmıştır. Bu ölçüm sonuçlarına göre; trafiğin yakınındaki $PM _{2,5} ve PM _{10}$ konsantrasyonlarının kritik değerlere ulaştığı, deniz kenarındaki parkta daha düşük değerlerde olduğu ve orman içerisindeki parkta ise konsantrasyonların sınır değerlerin altında kaldığı gözlemlenmiştir.
