Abstract
Description
Ozone in the lower planetary boundary layer of the earth atmosphere is dangerous to
people and vegetation, since it oxidizes natural tissue. The diminished in visibility is because
of dispersing of sun based radiation by high convergences of anthropogenic aerosols. Visibility
impairment is most prominent at high relative mugginess when the aerosols swell by the takeup
of water to expand the cross sectional area for dispersing; this is the wonder known as haze.
Haze has become a major air pollution challenge the aviation industry has to cope with in
recent time. In this review, two major problems were spotted to be responsible for air disaster
in any region of the world. While some developed countries had almost resolved the challenge
of visibility impairment by seeking relevant solutions, most developing countries do not have a
recovery plan. Therefore, the resolution of this major challenge may be the leverage for most
developing nations to draw out a recovery plan.
