Use of IoT sensing and occupant surveys for determining the resilience of buildings to forest fire generated PM2.5
Wildfires and associated emissions of particulate matter pose significant environmental and health concerns. In this study we propose tools to evaluate building resilience to extreme episodes of outdoor particulate matter using a combination of indoor and ...
2019Short term exposure to fine particulate matter and hospital admission risks and costs in the Medicare population: time stratified, case crossover study
OBJECTIVE To assess risks and costs of hospital admission associated with short term exposure to fine particulate matter with diameter less than 2.5 mu m (PM2.5) for 214 mutually exclusive disease groups. DESIGN Time stratified, case crossover analyses wit ...
BMJ2019Radical Formation by Fine Particulate Matter Associated with Highly Oxygenated Molecules
Andrea Mario Arangio, Kai Wang, Ting Wang, Hang Su
Highly oxygenated molecules (HOMs) play an important role in the formation and evolution of secondary organic aerosols (SOA). However, the abundance of HOMs in different environments and their relation to the oxidative potential of fine particulate matter ...
2019Simulating Biogenic Secondary Organic Aerosol During Summertime in China
Biogenic secondary organic aerosol (BSOA) contributes significantly to summertime organic particulate matter. In this study, a simulation of BSOA for summer 2012 over China is performed using the Community Multiscale Air Quality model with an explicit repr ...
2018Linked Response of Aerosol Acidity and Ammonia to SO2 and NOx Emissions Reductions in the United States
Large reductions of sulfur and nitrogen oxide emissions in the United States have led to considerable improvements in air quality, though recent analyses in the Southeastern United States have shown little response of aerosol pH to these reductions. This s ...
American Chemical Society2018Long-term monitoring of black carbon across Germany
Lately, black carbon (BC) has received significant attention due to its climate-warming properties and adverse health effects. Nevertheless, long-term observations in urban areas are scarce, most likely because BC monitoring is not required by environmenta ...
2018Inhalation intake fraction of particulate matter from localized indoor emissions
Elevated exposure to airborne particulate matter is linked to deleterious health and well-being outcomes. Exposure assessment can be improved through enhanced understanding of source-receptor relationships, for example as expressed in the inhalation intake ...
2017Aerosol Health Effects from Molecular to Global Scales
Andrea Mario Arangio, Gerhard Lammel
Poor air quality is globally the largest environmental health risk. Epidemiological studies have uncovered clear relationships of gaseous pollutants and particulate matter (PM) with adverse health outcomes, including mortality by cardiovascular and respira ...
American Chemical Society2017Air pollution-aerosol interactions produce more bioavailable iron for ocean ecosystems
Athanasios Nenes, Yu Lin, Xiuwei Zhang, Wei Li
It has long been hypothesized that acids formed from anthropogenic pollutants and natural emissions dissolve iron (Fe) in airborne particles, enhancing the supply of bioavailable Fe to the oceans. However, field observations have yet to provide indisputabl ...
American Association for the Advancement of Science2017Fine particle pH and gas-particle phase partitioning of inorganic species in Pasadena, California, during the 2010 CalNex campaign
Athanasios Nenes, Junqiu Liu, Hairun Guo
pH is a fundamental aerosol property that affects ambient particle concentration and composition, linking pH to all aerosol environmental impacts. Here, PM1 and PM2.5 pH are calculated based on data from measurements during the California Research at the N ...
