A study of the pollution potential of Visakhapatnam

The air pollution potential of Visakhapatnam is studied by using data from 1958 to 1967. The main result is that winter and the premonsoon season are not favorable for dispersion of pollutants, and it is suggested that the discharge of pollutants should be kept to a minimum in those two seasons.
