Abstract
Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) disease is still the highest number of diseases in Depok City. The decline in ambient air quality and availability of Green Open Space (GOS) due to the growing development is thought to be the causing factor. This study was conducted to determine the trend of Ambient Air Quality, GOS, and the number of ARI cases that occurred in Depok during 2013-2017. The research design is an ecological study. The units of analysis are the secondary data of the concentration of five parameters of ambient air quality (SO2, NO2, CO, Pb dan PM10) and GOS from the Department of Hygiene and Environment and data of ARI cases from Health Department in Depok. The analysis was done with spatial and statistical analysis. The result of the analysis showed in tables, graphs, and mapping. There is a random fluctuating trend on the ambient air parameters and ARI. Whereas there is a patterned increase on the GOS. It is suggested to the city government as well as the official departments in Depok City to formulate regulations and various programs to improve the quality of environmental health and reduce the number of ARI cases in Depok.
