Analysis on PM2.5 pollutant distribution in 2016 and 2019 by using GIS spatial analyst : a case study in Selangor / Nur Syahirah Mohamad Sallehuddin

In this thesis, the relationship between PM2.5 pollutant distribution with urbanization, population and meteorological factor has been investigated utilising Geographic Information System (GIS) as an analysis tool. The research focused on how the variation of PM2.5 from 2016 to 2019 and the factor t...
