Abstract

ANGELES SUAZO, Julio Miguel et al. NO₂ remote sensing and land use in the Pampas district. RIIARn [online]. 2025, vol.12, n.2, pp.67-75. ISSN 2409-1618.  https://doi.org/10.53287/mjtm9678ds57b.

Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) is a pollutant produced by the vehicle fleet, which can be transformed into tropospheric ozone and is one of the causes of respiratory diseases. The research aims to evaluate the temporal variability of nitrogen dioxide obtained with the OMI sensor of the AURA satellite during the period 2020-2024. The methodology used is remote sensing techniques using the OMI sensor with a temporal resolution of 1 minute. It was obtained that the maximum NO2 values are 20 umol m-2; also, the predominant land use in the Pampas district is agricultural crops and urban areas. Therefore, it is essential to propose environmental mitigation measures and counteract the effects of climate change at the local and regional levels. Likewise, it is important to implement air quality management strategies that adapt to seasonal variations, in particular the need to strengthen pollution control measures.
