We travelled to five locations in Montreal possessing varying levels of air pollution: an airport, farmland, a suburban area, a factory, and store-bought soil. Three soil samples were extracted from each of the physical locations. Several soil characteristic tests (nutrient, pH, salinity and water holding capacity) were performed on the samples. After observing and analyzing the results of the various experiments, we were able to determine what form of impact air pollution has on soil health and characteristics.
