| Abstract | Climate change has become a global concern in recent decades, and these climatic changes affect life on Earth in various ways. Besides, significant contributors to climate change and air pollution are GHGs emissions resulting from the extraction and burning of fossil fuels. Therefore, our study aims to monitor greenhouse gases, especially CO2, CH4 and CO. Moreover, we would like to analyse influencing variables of CO2, CH4 and CO on urban heat islands and compare the eastern and western seaboard of Thailand, creating ArcGIS StoryMaps of GHGs concentration to publish. The interpolation model used in this research is IDW, Natural Neighbor and Cubic Spline, and then selects the model with the highest Bias MAE RMSE values. The model was chosen IDW for CO2 and CO, and CH4 uses the Cubic Spline model. This research found the concentration of CO2 and CH4 in ppm in Thailand from January 2010 to December 2021. Generally, it can be seen that the trend was upward notably over the period. Moreover, on average, the concentration of Carbon Monoxide (ppm) between November 2018 and December 2021, the movement was both upward and downward wildly over the period. |
