متن کاملWintertime vertical variations in particulate matter (PM) and precursor concentrations in the San Joaquin Valley during the California Regional Coarse PM/Fine PM Air Quality Study.
Air quality monitoring was conducted at a rural site with a tower in the middle of California's San Joaquin Valley (SJV) and at elevated sites in the foothills and mountains surrounding the SJV for the California Regional PM10/ PM2.5 Air Quality Study. Measurements at the surface and n a tower at 90 m were collected in Angiola, CA, from December 2000 through February 2001 and included hourly bl...
متن کاملSources of PM(10) and PM (2.5) in Cairo's ambient air.
A source attribution study was performed to assess the contributions of specific pollutant source types to the observed particulate matter (PM) levels in the greater Cairo Area using the chemical mass balance (CMB) receptor model. Three intensive ambient monitoring studies were carried out during the period of February 21-March 3, 1999, October 27-November 27, 1999, and June 8-June 26, 2002. PM...
متن کاملBlue Sky Detection for Picture Quality Enhancement
Content analysis of video and still images is attractive for multiple reasons, such as enabling content-based actions and image manipulation. This paper presents a new algorithm and feature model for blue-sky detection. The algorithm classifies the sky areas by computing a pixel-accurate sky probability. Such a probabilistic measure matches well with the requirements of typical video enhancemen...
متن کاملTraffic Impacts on PM(2.5) Air Quality in Nairobi, Kenya.
Motor vehicle traffic is an important source of particulate pollution in cities of the developing world, where rapid growth, coupled with a lack of effective transport and land use planning, may result in harmful levels of fine particles (PM(2.5)) in the air. However, a lack of air monitoring data hinders health impact assessments and the development of transportation and land use policies that...
