Environmental Science

During a temperature inversion

• sulfur oxides and nitrogen oxides combine with water in the atmosphere

• an influx of acidic water causes a rapid change in the pH of water

• levels of ground level ozone decrease

• pollutants are trapped near Earth's surface

Which is true of air pollution and human health

• years of research link air pollution to lung disease

• air pollution is commonly listed as a cause of death

• none of the health effects of air pollution are reversible

• healthy adults are most affected by air pollution
