Health risks from air pollution continue to be a major concern for residents in Mexico City. These health burdens could partially alleviated through individual avoidance behavior if accurate information regarding the daily of multiple pollutants became available. A split sample approach was used this study create and validate multi-pollutant, health-based quality index. Poisson generalized line...

Air pollution is one of the emerging environmental issues of the western cities of Iran. Daily data (2009-2012) on air pollutants in Sanandaj, Iran, were collected from the Department of Environmental Protection, Kurdistan Province, Iran. Climatic parameters were collected from the Kurdistan Meteorological Bureau. The quality of air was assessed based on the air quality index (AQI). The relatio...

iran is located in dry belt of the earth and always involved with drought in different sections. drought has already caused many losses to natural plant cover, agriculture and human society. for drought monitoring, we can use some drought indecies. in this research, the standard index of annual precipitation)siap),sandardized precipitation index (spi) and palmer drought severity index (pdsi) we...

the present study represents a first insight into the draa lasfar min (marrakech - morocco) to assess the degree of polymetallic pollution caused by anthropogenic activities (like mine extraction) and consequently the possible diffusion of heavy metals and to predict the risk of their mobility in the surroundings of the mine area. the edaphologic parameters ph and electrical conductivity (ec) w...

The aim of this study is to investigate climate change impact on Karoon3 basin in future periods. For this purpose, the simulated precipitation of 10 AOGCM models, including BCM2.0, CGCM3T63, CNRMCM3, CSIROMK3.0, GFDLCM2.0, GISS-ER, HADCM3, INMCM3.0, IPSLCM4, MIROC3.2 MEDRES was used to simulate drought index. Monthly precipitation was calculated by inverse distance weighted method. Standard Pr...

BACKGROUND Environmental pollutants are thought to be one of major triggers of atopic dermatitis (AD). OBJECTIVE We attempted to evaluate the clinical effects of environment with low indoor pollutant levels on AD management. METHODS Fifty-one children (mean age 1.7 years) with moderate to severe AD who failed to show improvement with conventional management were recruited. Disease severity ...
