Abstract
Although considerable progress has been made in improving the environment, national and state goals for environmental quality still have not been completely met, and additional effort and expenditures will be necessary. To use public funds as effectively as possible, Illinois environmental officials must set priorities so that the most serious problems receive the most attention. The priorities should be based on an assessment of the current status of Illinois' environment. This technical report on air resources is one of a series aimed at documenting and assessing the status of Illinois' environment. It includes comprehensive information about Illinois' climate and air quality and the deposition of atmospheric constituents on the earth's surface. In each subject area, currently available data have been assembled to provide a picture of how air resources have changed over time and how they vary spatially from place to place around the state.
