Ambient ozone and emergency department visits for skin conditionsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 5 - Trang 303-309 - 2010
Mieczyslaw Szyszkowicz, Eugeniusz Porada, Gordon Searles, Brian H. Rowe
Little is known regarding the epidemiology of acute skin/eye infection and
inflammations and their link to ambient air pollution; however, skin/eye
problems are among the most frequent health complaints seen by emergency
physicians. The authors explored links between previous day exposures to ambient
ozone and the daily visits to emergency departments (ED) for inflammation or
infections in the out... hiện toàn bộ
Impact of cement factory emission on air quality and human health around Mugher and the surrounding villages, Central EthiopiaSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 15 - Trang 347-361 - 2021
Kassahun Ture Beketie, Abezash Terefe Angessa, Tadesse Terefe Zeleke, Desalegn Yayeh Ayal
Particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10) and trace gas (CO2, NO2, and SO2) emissions
were measured at different units of the Mugher cement factory and nearby
residential areas. The prevalence of respiratory system diseases of the
community proximate and distant from the factory was also analyzed using
clinical records. The emission dispersion pathways were also investigated using
a web-based online REA... hiện toàn bộ
Air pollution: impact and interventionsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 13 - Trang 209-223 - 2020
Deepak Gautam, Nomesh B. Bolia
Clean air is a fundamental requirement for the existence of life on earth.
However, with the rapid rate of economic development, globalization, and
increasing energy demand, large amount of emissions and waste are generated,
leading to severe air pollution. This paper surveys the literature to provide an
overview of the impact of air pollution on various aspects of human life. The
impact is catego... hiện toàn bộ
Corruption and air pollution: a comparative study of African and OECD countriesSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 13 - Trang 1421-1429 - 2020
Iddisah Sulemana, Daniel Kpienbaareh
This study explored the association between corruption and air pollution in
African and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD)
countries. On the one hand, from eliminating poverty and hunger to reducing
inequalities and combating climate change and in pursuit of sustainable
development across the globe, each of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals is
anchored on the envir... hiện toàn bộ
Chemical content and estimated sources of fine fraction of particulate matter collected in KrakowSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 10 - Trang 47-52 - 2016
Lucyna Samek, Zdzislaw Stegowski, Leszek Furman, Joanna Fiedor
The monitored level of pollution remains high in Krakow, Poland. Alerts
regarding increased levels of pollution, which advise asthmatics, the elderly,
and children to limit their exposure to open air, continue to be issued on
numerous days. In this work, seasonal variations in PM2.5 (particulate matter
containing particles with aerodynamic diameter no higher than 2.5 μm)
concentrations are shown. ... hiện toàn bộ
A combination of bottom-up and top-down approaches for calculating of air emission for developing countries: a case of Ho Chi Minh City, VietnamSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 12 - Trang 1059-1072 - 2019
Quoc Bang Ho, Hoang Ngoc Khue Vu, Thoai Tam Nguyen, Thi Thuy Hang Nguyen, Thi Thu Thuy Nguyen
A comprehensive emission inventory (EI) was conducted in Ho Chi Minh City
(HCMC), the largest city of Vietnam rapid urbanization rate. In 2017, HCMC had
8.6 million inhabitants with a total of nine millions of private vehicles, 19
manufacturing and industrial zones, 30 industrial clusters, and numerous other
factories and enterprises. All those sources could contribute to the high levels
of emissi... hiện toàn bộ
Chemical and sulfur isotopic characteristics of precipitation in a representative urban site, South China: implication for anthropogenic influencesSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 13 - Trang 349-359 - 2020
Fangwen Zheng, Wenbo Rao, Xiaodong Chu, Hua Bai, Sanyuan Jiang
Nanchang, the capital of Jiangxi Province, is a major constituent of the South
China Acid Rain Zone. In this study, the chemical and sulfur isotopic
compositions of precipitation in this region were investigated during 2015–2016
to clarify the origin of major chemicals. The pH was < 5.6 for 72.6% of
precipitation events, reflecting the predominance of acid rain. SO42−, Ca2+,
NH4+, and NO3− were th... hiện toàn bộ
New processing methodology to incorporate marine halocarbons and dimethyl sulfide (DMS) emissions from the CAMS-GLOB-OCE dataset in air quality modeling studiesSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 16 - Trang 681-689 - 2022
Ernesto Pino-Cortés, Katherine Gómez, Fernando González Taboada, Joshua S. Fu, Alfonso Saiz-Lopez, Juan Höfer
Oceans are the largest source of biogenic emissions to the atmosphere, including
aerosol precursors like marine halocarbons and dimethyl sulfide (DMS). During
the last decade, the CAMS-GLOB-OCE dataset has developed an analysis of daily
emissions of tribromomethane (CHBr3), dibromomethane (CH2Br2), iodomethane
(CH3I), and DMS, due to its increasingly recognized role on tropospheric
chemistry and c... hiện toàn bộ
