Question

The climatic conditions are determined by the ____ present in air.

Answer 1

Answer: The climate conditions are determined by the Particulate matter (PM) present in the air

Explanation:   Different pollutants have differing effects on the atmosphere. While some are warming up the climate, others are lowering down the overall temperature.

The Environmental Protection Agency has found that aerosols are the largest source of particulate matter in the air, and they can be found in the air over every ecosystem

Other PMs primarily responsible for the drastic change in climatic conditions are listed below:

• The presence of Ozone (O₃) elevates the temperature

• Particulate matters like carbon particulates (especially Black Carbon coming from combustion) lead to warming up of the temperature
• Particulate matters like Sulphates cool the earth's atmosphere
