Abstract

Aerosols loading and retention justifies the efficiency of the 'self-cleansing' mechanism of the geographical air space. The advantage of the proposed technique which is based on the coefficient of variation helps to estimate the aerosols retention over a geographical area without necessarily going through the complexities of formulating sectional equations to illustrate the physics of the atmosphere. The system of aerosol retention over Serekunda suggests that air pollution should be taken more seriously to avoid natural disasters in the nearest future. It was discovered that the 'self-cleansing' cycle over Serekunda is four years. The year with a fairly high aerosols retention and correlation was between 2006 & 2007 i.e. 36.82 and 0.61 respectively.
