Working with air quality and meteorological data Exercises (Part-1)

Atmospheric air pollution is one of the most important environmental concerns in many countries around the world, and it is strongly affected by meteorological conditions. Accordingly, in this set of exercises we use openair package to work and analyze air quality and meteorological data. This packages provides tools to directly import data from air quality measurement network across UK, as well as tools to analyse and producing reports. In this exercise set we will import and analyze data from MY1 station which is located in Marylebone Road in London, UK.

Answers to the exercises are available here.

Please install and load the package openair before starting the exercises.
