In a temperature - inversion, a layer of warm air lies above a layer of cooler air near the surface. This stable layer acts like a lid, preventing the upward movement of air and thus trapping pollutants near the surface. Wind can disperse pollutants, and "Temperature Aversion" and "Temperature Reversion" are not relevant meteorological terms for trapping pollutants.
