Les polluants atmosphériques sont trop nombreux pour être surveillés en totalité. Certains d'entre eux sont choisis parce qu'ils sont caractéristiques de types de pollution (industrielle ou automobile) et parce que leurs effets nuisibles pour l'environnement et/ou la santé sont déterminés. Ces espèces sont appelées «indicateurs de pollution atmosphérique» et font l'objet de réglementations. 5, record 1, French, - principaux%20polluants%20atmosph%C3%A9riques
