Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Air Pollution on Main Streets

Noise Pollution and Traffic Noise Index on Mashhad Main Streets during the Busiest Hours of Summer

Introduction: Among the environmental pollutions, noise is very important for its physiological  and psychological effects on human. Traffic noise is one of the most important pollutants and the  hospitals  are  one  of  the  critical  places  regarding  this  type  of  noise.  For  these  reasons,  in  the  summer  of  1382,  the  traffic  noise  of  Mashhad  main  streets  around  the  hospit...

Air Pollution and Traffic Measurements in Bangkok Streets

Ambient air quality and traffic density measurements were conducted during January to December 2001 at four air monitoring sites in Bangkok Metropolitan Region (BMR). The ambient air pollutants included carbon monoxide (CO), particulate matter (PM10), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), ozone (O3) and benzene. The diurnal variations of air pollutant levels were generally identical to ...

Spatiotemporal Interpolation Methods for Air Pollution Exposure

This paper investigates spatiotemporal interpolation methods for the application of air pollution assessment. The air pollutant of interest in this paper is fine particulate matter PM2.5. The choice of the time scale is investigated when applying the shape function-based method. It is found that the measurement scale of the time dimension has an impact on the interpolation results. Based upon t...

Population Dynamics and Air Pollution: The Impact of Demographics on Health Impact Assessment of Air Pollution

OBJECTIVE To explore how three different assumptions on demographics affect the health impact of Danish emitted air pollution in Denmark from 2005 to 2030, with health impact modeled from 2005 to 2050. METHODS Modeled air pollution from Danish sources was used as exposure in a newly developed health impact assessment model, which models four major diseases and mortality causes in addition to ...
