Particulate matter (PM) is a key indicator of air pollution brought into the air by a variety of
natural and human activities. As it can be suspended over long time and travel over long …

Results of recent research show that particulate matter (PM) composition and size vary
widely with both space and time. Despite the variability in PM characteristics, which are …

Particulate matter (PM) is both a major driver of climate change and a source of toxicity for
health. In the upper atmosphere, particulate matter modifies the earth radiation budget …

Air pollution poses a critical threat to human health with ambient and household air pollution
identified as key health risks in India. While there are many studies investigating …

Air pollution has been considered a hazard to human health. In the past decades, many
studies highlighted the role of ambient airborne particulate matter (PM) as an important …

Whilst epidemiological studies have consistently demonstrated adverse effects of particulate
matter exposure on human health, the mechanism of effect is currently unclear. One of the …

Particulate matter (PM) is a key indicator of air pollution and a significant risk factor for
adverse health outcomes in humans. PM is not a self-contained pollutant but a mixture of …

Particulate matter (PM) is a complex, heterogeneous mixture that changes in time and
space. It encompasses many different chemical components and physical characteristics …

The public has long been aware that particulate matter (PM) can be deleterious to health,
between inhalation of (tobacco) smoke and “dusty” roadways. Yet establishing what PM …

Identifying the ambient particulate matter (PM) fractions or constituents, critically involved in
eliciting adverse health effects, is crucial to the implementation of more cost-efficient …
