Air Pollution in the Ural Mountains: Environmental, Health and Policy Aspects de Igor Linkov

Air Pollution in the Ural Mountains: Environmental, Health and Policy Aspects: NATO Asi Series, cartea 40

Editat de Igor Linkov, Richard Wilson, R Wilson
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 feb 1998
The metals industry was established in the Ural Mountains over two centuries ago. Seventy years ago, the town of Magnitogorsk was established, with US and Western assistance, to exploit the iron ore there. It became a symbol of USSR industry - and is now a symbol of air pollution. This volume describes the pollution in the region and the steps being taken to combat it.
