Variability and Trends of PM<sub>2.5</sub> Across Different Climatic Zones in Saudi Arabia: A Spatiotemporal Analysis

Variability and Trends of PM<sub>2.5</sub> Across Different Climatic Zones in Saudi Arabia: A Spatiotemporal Analysis

Atmospheric fine particles (PM<sub>2.5</sub>) pose significant health risks by penetrating deep into the lungs and causing respiratory and cardiovascular issues. In Saudi Arabia, high PM<sub>2.5</sub> levels are driven by its geographic location and extreme climate. Therefore...
