The most important and harmful components of air pollution that affect the health cause death millions people every year around world are heavy metals. Due to their potential harm, monitoring change in concentration metals reducing essential. This study aimed determine usability Cedrus atlantica grown Düzce, where metal is reported be high, for lithium air. For this purpose, Li annuals Düzce was evaluated 60-year period. As a result study, it determined region has increased significantly last decade. highest values were generally obtained north direction, interpreted as originating from highway i.e., traffic. very suitable species pollution.

The usability of black pine (Pinus nigra Arnold) in both monitoring the changes concentrations silver (Ag), selenium (Se), antimony (Sb), and thallium (Tl), reducing soil or air pollution was investigated. In study, annual rings a Pinus tree, cut 2023 identified as 356 years old, were grouped into 10-year intervals, then these heavy metals throughout process determined by analysing elements. Additionally, relationship elements with other also detected scope study. study results suggested that not suitable bio-monitor for Ag, Se, Sb, Tl air, but it highly species phytoremediation studies aimed at Moreover, relationships studied essential nutrients, such Mg, Ca, P, K, Al, Zn, Ni, Fe, statistically significant very weak; whereas they exhibited positive strong known to be harmful health V, Pb, As.

Among the heavy metals (HMs) whose concentrations in natural environments have risen considerably last era, chromium (Cr) is one of most toxic. Because risks it poses to human and environmental health, great importance screen variation Cr contamination atmosphere decrease pollution. This study aimed determine proper tree species that can be used monitor reduce contamination. For this aim, studies were conducted on Tilia tomentosa, Robinia pseudoacacia, Cedrus atlantica, Pseudotsuga menziesii, Fraxinus excelsior growing Düzce, which among 5 contaminated European towns according World Air Pollution report. Samples taken from these trees examined, changes concentration depending species, organs, compass direction, age range 60 years evaluated. Results indicated higher pollution recent years, consistent with traffic density, but there was no effect direction. It also determined appropriate for screening airborne decreasing pseudoacacia atlantica.

Küresel iklim değişikliği, dünya genelinde özellikle sıcaklık artışı ve yağışlardaki azalmayla birlikte iklimlerde kuraklaşmaya sebep olacak, dünyadaki bütün canlıları ekosistemleri etkileyecek, geri dönüşü olmayan en önemli küresel sorun olarak gösterilmektedir. Su kaynakları üzerinde büyük baskı oluşturan durdurulması mümkün görülmeyen bu sürecin olası etkilerinin belirlenebilmesi için öncelikle tiplerindeki değişimin tahmin edilmesi gelişimine göre sektörel bazda önlemler alınması önerilmektedir. Bu noktadan hareketle çalışmada Muş ili günümüzdeki sıcaklık, yağış tiplerinin (De Martone Emberger sınıflandırmasına göre) durumu belirlenmiş, SSPs 245 SSPs585 senaryolarına 2060 2100 yıllarına kadar olan süreçte parametrelerin nasıl değişeceği belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda il oranda olacağı, kurak tiplerine doğru kayacağı öngörülmektedir. bitkiler görüleceği, tarım, orman mera alanlarındaki etkilerin, ekonomisi tarım hayvancılığa bağlı ilde yıkıcı sonuçları olacağı edilmektedir.
