%X OBJECTIVE: In the study, it is aimed to compare areas where possible sources of air pollution are different that Manisa-Center and Manisa-Soma air qualities in terms of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and particulate matter (PM10) parameters. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This is cross-sectional study that Manisa-Center and Manisa-Soma air quality measurement values between 01.01.2017 and 31.12.2017 which is obtained from the website of the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization. In the study Manisa-Center and Manisa-Soma SO2 and PM10 values were compared in summer and winter seasons. Air Quality Index (AQI) classification, limit values and definitions were made according to the Air Quality Assessment and Management Regulation. RESULTS: In Soma, the PM10 averaged 78.02¡À40.72 in 2017 and 77.03¡À28.32 in Manisa; The mean SO2 in Soma was 89.08¡À91.62 and in Manisa it was 9.65¡À4.91. In Soma, PM10 winter season average is 92.85¡À44.57, summer season is 55.32¡À17.17 (z=-7.37, p<0.001) while in Manisa PM10 winter season is 87.12¡À34.07 and summer season is 66.92¡À16.22 (z=-5.58, p<0.001). In Soma and Manisa, the PM10 grade of AQI was found to have good, average and critical levels, with a significant difference in the distribution according to the summer and winter seasons (respectively: x2=55.32, p<0.001; x2=26.61, p<0.001). In Soma, 50 ¦Ìg/m3 PM10 limit value was exceeded in 63 (57.8%) summer season and 132 (82.5%) total 269 (72.5) days in winter season (x2=19.83, p<0.001). In Manisa, the PM10 limit value of 50 ¦Ìg/m3 was exceeded in summer season 160 (87.4%) and in winter season 154 (92.2%) by 314 (89.7%) days in total (x2=2.16, p=0.14). In Soma, SO2 winter season average was 131¡À86.28, summer season was 14.73¡À17.46 (z =-13.11, p<0.001) while in Manisa the SO2 winter season was 11.36¡À6.94 and summer season was 8.6¡À3.88 (z=-3.64, p<0.001). In Soma, the SO2 limit value (125 ¦Ìg/m3) was exceeded by 83 (46.4%) days during the winter season. In Manisa, the SO2 limit value is not exceeded in the winter season. In Soma and Manisa, the SO2 limit value is not exceeded in the summer season. CONCLUSIONS: PM10 and SO2 levels are increasing in winter, PM10 pollution is effective in winter in Soma, in Manisa in both winter and summer seasons. Soma has SO2 pollution as well as PM10 pollution. Especially in the winter, SO2 limit values reach levels that threaten public health
