This comprehensive study aims to examine the relationships between ambient air quality (AAQ) and respiratory health of the participants residing in three different towns of Çanakkale city, Turkey between August 2013 and 2014. AAQ measurements for bioaerosols, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), total particulate matter (PM) count, carbon dioxide (CO₂), and carbon monoxide (CO) were performed and monthly pulmonary function test (PFT) was applied to volunteer participants residing in the study sites (n = 121) for one year. Additionally, concentrations of air pollutants for PM_2.5/PM₁₀, sulfur dioxide (SO₂), nitrogen oxides, and ozone were gathered from AAQ monitoring stations. To estimate the contributions of the emission sources and their effects on human health in the region, an emission inventory was also prepared in the region and AERMOD modelling system was applied for the year of 2013. Accordingly, the industry was the most polluting sector for NOx and SO₂, while road traffic and residential heating were the most polluting sectors for CO and PM₁₀. Factor analysis revealed that organics, combustion, bioaerosol propagation, and ozone accumulation contributed to AAQ, in agreement with AQ modelling results. Çan had the worst air quality (industrialized site), which affected the respiratory health indicators of the participants. Generalized linear model estimated that PF of the participants varied according to the residing district, gender, suffering from asthma, and lifelong smoking or environmental tobacco smoke exposure (p < 0.05). Also, PF of the participants were linked with VOCs levels in the Central town, total PM count in Lapseki, and ozone levels in Çan (p < 0.05).

这项全面的研究旨在研究居住在土耳其恰纳卡莱市三个不同城镇的参与者的周围空气质量（AAQ）与呼吸健康之间的关系。2013年8月。生物气溶胶，挥发性有机化合物（VOC）的AAQ测量，总计进行了颗粒物（PM）计数，二氧化碳（CO ₂）和一氧化碳（CO），并且对居住在研究地点（n = 121）的志愿者参与者进行了每月肺功能测试（PFT）（n = 121）。此外，PM _2.5 / PM ₁₀的空气污染物浓度，二氧化硫（SO ₂），氮氧化物和臭氧从AAQ监测站收集。为了估算排放源的贡献及其对本地区人类健康的影响，还准备了该地区的排放清单，并在2013年采用了AERMOD建模系统。因此，该行业是NOx污染最严重的行业和SO ₂，而道路交通和住宅供暖是CO和PM ₁₀污染最严重的部门。因子分析表明，有机物，燃烧，生物气溶胶扩散和臭氧积累是造成AQ的原因，与AQ建模结果一致。Çan的空气质量最差（工业化场所），这影响了参与者的呼吸健康指标。广义线性模型估计，参与者的PF因居住地区，性别，哮喘，终身吸烟或环境烟草烟雾暴露而异（p  <0.05）。另外，参与者的PF与中部城镇的VOC含量，Lapseki的PM总含量和Çan的臭氧含量有关（p  <0.05）。
