Continuous measurement of traditional air pollutants alongwith meteorological p'arameters was carried out by air pollution Mobile Monitoring Laboratory at industrial areas of Karachi. Average concentration ofS02 at Sindh Industrial Trading Estate was found to be 24.9 fL8Im3 and PMIO (Particulate matter) was 176.5 fL8Im3• whereas the average concentration of S02 at Korangi Industrial Area was 7.4 fL8Im3 and PMIO was 147.2 fL8Im3 respectively. These data were compared with the uptown area of Karachi. The result suggested that S~ and PMI0 found in these areas shows similar variation, which indicates that, these pollutants originate from the same source. Effect on human health is also discussed.
