Impact of road traffic near the roads on the cypress in the region of Annaba Algeria

Impact of road traffic near the roads on the cypress in the region of Annaba Algeria

Air pollution especially of lead has steadily evolved over time, due to the increase in the number of vehicles on the market. Our research is based primarily on the use of a species phanérogamique "Cupressus sempervirens" as bioindicator of air pollution on the three major highways serving the city of Annaba. An appropriate sampling strategy, a spatio-temporal monitoring and measurement of physiological parameters by the combined determination of lead allowed us to assess not only the state of air quality but also the impact of this pollution generated by heavy traffic in this region. Statistical analysis of results brings up correlations ranging from significant to very highly significant between the measured parameters and lead levels in the bio indicator by site and months of experimentation
