This research work analyzes the conditions of influence of meteorological and climatic factors on the level of atmospheric pollution that contribute to atmospheric self-purification from pollutants in industrial centers, on the example of Ust-Kamenogorsk. Methods are considered for calculation of meteorological dispersion potential and self-purification of the atmosphere from pollutants. In accordance with climate data, there are calculated the parameters of climatic dispersion potential of the atmosphere (СPA) and the coefficient of atmospheric self-purification (K) in Ust-Kamenogorsk. According to the results of the research, it is concluded that the calculated average annual parameters of СPA and K in the climatic aspect of the studied region characterize extremely unfavorable conditions for the dispersion of impurities in the air environment of Ust-Kamenogorsk. This work contributes to further analysis of the regional assessment of the atmosphere ecological state in a large industrial center.
