Description

The information available suggests that the concentration of total suspended particulate matter in major urban areas are reaching unprecended levels(>230μg/m3). From the first documented study on total suspended particulate matter in 1977, a review of the various studies both in Nairobi and Mombasa is made with a view to bring to light, the assessment of air pollution in Kenya.
