Fine particulate matter is an air pollutant that is a concern for people's health when levels in the air are high. Bangkok, Thailand, is visited by many tourists annually and is the country's capital city. This research paper aims to investigate and compare the levels of PM2.5 air temperature and relative humidity levels in the capital city and university using Davis AirLink to provide a more granular understanding of air quality in these two distinct environments: (1) Bangkok, Thailand, and (2) Walailak University, Nakhon Si Thammarat. Our results showed that PM 2.5 levels in Bangkok were higher than PM 2.5 measurements at Walailak University, and PM2.5 at these two sites had positive linear regression in all sites.
