dc.description.abstractThis thesis explores the environmental impact of green space loss on air quality in Damascus, Syria, using a combination of geospatial, climatological, and documentary data. From a combination of NDVI satellite images between 2014 and 2024, the study determines extensive vegetation loss, especially in the Eastern Ghouta region, and attributes this to increased urban temperatures and pollution. analysis synthesizes field observations of PM₂.₅, cement dust residues, and greenhouse gas emissions and reveals that conflict-induced destruction and an ecological planning failure in the post-war period have severely compromised Damascus's air quality. The findings underline the need to utilize reforestation, increased air quality monitoring, and sustainable urban reconstruction measures to minimize environmental and health risks in the post-conflict period.

This study examines the effect of urban green cover loss in Damascus between 2014 and 2024 on air pollution and temperature. Based on NDVI analysis, climatology, and pollution studies, it highlights the role played by lost vegetation, war-torn damage, and the Ghouta Green Belt in causing urban heat and pollution. The findings stress that green infrastructure should be restored in post-conflict recovery planning.
