Abstract
A five-year air pollution profile of the particulate and gaseous contaminants was obtained for the study area of the Tecumseh Community Health Study, which is a comprehensive longitudinal study.of the health of the entire population in this area. A four-year period of bimonthly sampling of particulates showed that this sampling regime would provide accurate data on yearly pollution levels. The air pollution data obtained will be used as baseline data for comparison of pollution levels and health effects in this community in future years.
