Resumen
El ozono es una molécula triatómica de oxígeno que en condiciones normales tiene su formación entre los 30- 50 km de altura en una capa denominada capa de ozono. Sucede que por determinadas actividades antropogénicas y la consiguiente emisión de otros contaminantes primarios, como los óxidos de nitrógeno (NOX), este gas se puede llegar a formar en la capa más cercana a la superficie terrestre y convertirse en un serio contaminante, el denominado ozono troposférico, constituyendo un serio problema para la salud humana, los animales, plantas y el medio ambiente en general. En este pasado año 2020 el mundo vivió una situación que para la era contemporánea era impensable, el virus SARS-CoV-2 causante de la enfermedad COVID-19 se convertía en una seria pandemia sanitaria obligando al cierre de fronteras entre países y confinamientos casi totales de la población mundial. En este sentido, se hace notoria la disminución de las emisiones de contaminantes primarios. Con el objetivo de estudiar y profundizar en la disminución de dichos contaminantes y su relación con los contaminantes secundarios se ha realizado esta memoria. Se analizarán los datos recogidos por diversas estaciones de monitoreo ambiental de la isla de Tenerife para los NOX y el ozono troposférico durante los años 2016- 2020 para mediante el programa de análisis estadístico R y su librería Openair cuantificar como han variado las concentraciones de estos contaminantes y sobre todo conocer las repercusiones de la pandemia de la COVID-19 sobre la contaminación atmosférica de estos gases.
Ozone is a triatomic oxygen molecule that under normal conditions forms between 30 and 50 km above the earth's surface in a layer called the ozone layer. It happens that due to certain anthropogenic activities and the consequent emission of other primary pollutants, such as nitrogen oxides (NOX), this gas can be form in the closest layer to the earth's surface and become a serious pollutant, the so-called tropospheric ozone, constituting a serious problem for human health, animals, plants and the environment in general. In the year 2020, the world experienced a situation that was unthinkable for the contemporary era: the SARS-CoV-2 virus caused the COVID-19 disease which became a serious health pandemic, forcing the closure of borders between countries and almost total lockdown of the world's population. In this sense, the decrease in emissions of primary pollutants has been noticeable. The aim of this report is to study and study in depth the reduction of these pollutants and their relationship with secondary pollutants. The data collected by various environmental monitoring stations on the island of Tenerife for NOX and tropospheric ozone during the years 2016-2020 will be analysed using the R statistical analysis programme and its Openair library to quantify how the concentrations of these pollutants have varied and, above all, to find out the repercussions of the COVID-19 pandemic on atmospheric pollution of caused by these gases.
