Patterns of calculated concentrations by pollutant for different receptor territories corresponding to stations (furthest down the picture) and POs (the remainder). While all patterns are qualitatively similar, there are marked quantitative differences between territories. The pollutants go along the abscissa in the following sequence from left to right: CO, NO, NO 2 , NOx, O 3 , PM10, SO 2 , benzene, toluene, formaldehyde, xylene, Cd, Ni (the last four are meteoparameters). ...

... Imagine that for every pixel in the color image, you take its luminance value (that's how bright it appears). ... In the end, you will have a histogram which counts how many times each luminance value appears in the image (that histogram can be used to analyze the distribution of the luminance values in the image). ... For the watermark effect, we want to use the same value that we used in the Stretch Contrast step, so that the lightest color will be in fact white (255), and nothing will get clamped...
