Abstract
It is shown that variations in carbon monoxide concentrations can be e valuated bg measuring environmental noise, wind velocity and vertical thermal stability. The results can be justified on the basis of the th eory of the street canyon effect. The methodology proposed was Verifie d in two Italian cities with different characteristics: Milan and Rave nna.
