Abstract: Atmospheric particulates pollutants are the most serious city air pollution around the world. Urban atmospheric dust presents a significant problem particularly in the city of Beijing China which has a population of over 20 million. It is becoming the biggest pollution source. Fast industrialization and urbanization in recent years, has caused a rapid increase in the number of vehicles in and around with the result that air pollution in Beijing has become increasingly severe. This dissertation researched three different interpolation methods for atmospheric particulates, then, study on the different meteorological influence for the atmospheric particulates and built a model to estimate atmospheric dust deposition on plant leaves based on spectral features, finally, a relationship between the atmospheric particulates and plant's health was stated.
