ABSTRACT
Air pollution is a serious urban problem that threatens human health. Therefore, fine-grained pollution events detection has become a concerned issue for environmental management. Algorithms in previous studies identify pollution events as uptrend intervals at hour level. However, a significant part of pollution events caused by traffic and industry can be brief but frequent, which may be neglected under traditional coarse-grained detection. In this paper, we propose a fine-grained analysis of air pollution pattern based on minute-level event detection. Over the real-world deployment in Foshan, these events are analyzed according to their geographical contexts and temporal features. Results show insightful findings and this case study provides a practical reference for government inspection and pollution control.

Characteristics of Urban Non-Point Source Pollution in Suzhou City
ESIAT '09: Proceedings of the 2009 International Conference on Environmental Science and Information Application Technology - Volume 02Urban non-point source (NPS) pollution of Suzhou City in different land use was investigated from Nov. 2006 to Sep. 2008 in this paper. The results show that pollutants concentrations were very variable and dispersed for different sampling sites. The ...
Study on Pollution Mechanism of Petroleum Contamination in a Groundwater System under a Refinery in Jinan City
ESIAT '09: Proceedings of the 2009 International Conference on Environmental Science and Information Application Technology - Volume 02The petroleum hydrocarbon contaminant from oil industry can enter the soil and badly influence local environment. We take a groundwater system polluted by refinery’s discharged oil as research object in this paper. Firstly, we collect soil and ...
