Abstract The World Health Organization estimates 3.7 million deaths in 2012 in low-and
middle-income Asian countries due to outdoor air pollution. However, these estimates do not …

Our understanding of the relationship between human health and the indoor environment
continues to evolve. Previous research on health and indoor environments has tended to …

Background Studies of chronic health effects due to exposures to particulate matter with
aerodynamic diameters≤ 2.5 μm (PM2. 5) are often limited by sparse measurements …

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 …

In this review we discuss studies that applied atmospheric dispersion models (ADM) to
bioaerosols that are pathogenic to humans and livestock in the context of risk assessment …

Epidemiological studies of the health effects of outdoor air pollution have traditionally relied
upon surrogates of personal exposures, most commonly ambient concentration …

Humans are exposed to multiple chemicals on a daily basis instead of to just a single
chemical, yet the majority of existing toxicity data comes from single-chemical exposure …

Many regulations issued by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) are based on
the results of computer models. Models help EPA explain environmental phenomena in …

Background People in modern societies spend more than 90% of their time indoors. Hence,
indoor environmental quality (IEQ) has a significant impact on public health. In this article we …

In this paper we have coupled the CMAQ and ADMS air quality models to predict hourly
concentrations of NOX, NO2 and O3 for London at a spatial scale of 20 m× 20 m. Model …
