Ultrafine particles in ambient air of an urban area: dose implications for elderly.
Due to their detrimental effects on human health, the scientific interest in ultrafine particles (UFP) has been increasing, but available information is far from comprehensive. Compared to the remaining population, the elderly are potentially highly susceptible to the effects of outdoor air pollution. Thus, this study aimed to (1) determine the levels of outdoor pollutants in an urban area with...
متن کاملTransferability and Generalizability of Regression Models of Ultrafine Particles in Urban Neighborhoods in the Boston Area
Land use regression (LUR) models have been used to assess air pollutant exposure, but limited evidence exists on whether location-specific LUR models are applicable to other locations (transferability) or general models are applicable to smaller areas (generalizability). We tested transferability and generalizability of spatial-temporal LUR models of hourly particle number concentration (PNC) f...
متن کاملModeling Population Exposure to Ultrafine Particles in a Major Italian Urban Area
Average daily ultrafine particles (UFP) exposure of adult Milan subpopulations (defined on the basis of gender, and then for age, employment or educational status), in different exposure scenarios (typical working day in summer and winter) were simulated using a microenvironmental stochastic simulation model. The basic concept of this kind of model is that time-weighted average exposure is defi...
متن کاملConcentration and size distribution of ultrafine particles near a major highway.
Motor vehicle emissions usually constitute the most significant source of ultrafine particles (diameter <0.1 microm) in an urban environment, yet little is known about the concentration and size distribution of ultrafine particles in the vicinity of major highways. In the present study, particle number concentration and size distribution in the size range from 6 to 220 nm were measured by a con...
متن کاملFine and ultrafine particles in the Zürich (Switzerland) area
On occasion of the project YOGAM (year of gas phase and aerosol measurements), the spatial and temporal variation of selected aerosol and gas phase parameters was assessed for the Z ¨ urich (Switzerland) area with a new mobile pollutant measurement laboratory. This assessment based on on-road measurements along a specified route 5 on selected days during different seasons in 2001/2002, covering...
