Atmospheric pollutants can corrode heritage materials, especially stone, which cause a great loss that goes far beyond the economic losses of degraded materials. Over past decades, conventional air have been slashed owing to clean actions in China, produces significant co-benefit for conservation. However, benefits may be offset by increases photochemical oxidants smog, such as ozone, damage Th...

UNLABELLED More than 90 million Americans have low levels of health literacy that may contribute to poor health outcomes. Assessment of the readability of patient education materials (PEMs) is a vital component of health education. PURPOSE The aim of this study was to describe the readability of PEMs used in community healthcare settings serving low-income populations to provide further insig...

A series of sunlight-irradiated, smog-chamber experiments confirmed that the atmospheric organic aerosol formation potential of whole gasoline vapor cna be accounted for solely in terms of the aromatic fraction of the fuel. The total amount of secondary organic aerosol produced from the atmospheric oxidation of whole gasoline vapor can be represented as the sum of the contributions of the indiv...

In Bangkok, the megacity of Thailand, concentrations fine particulate matter (PM2.5) have often exceeded National Ambient Air Quality standards. During severe smog events over air quality has exhibited moderate to unhealthy atmospheric conditions, according index United States. To investigate formation secondary organic aerosols (SOA), a field campaign estimate carbon (SOC) in Bangkok using EC ...

Abstract. Residential biomass burning for heating purposes is an important source of air pollutants during winter. Here we test the hypothesis that significant secondary organic aerosol production can take place even winter nights through oxidation emitted vapors by nitrate (NO3) radical produced reaction ozone and nitrogen oxides. We use a mobile dual smog chamber system which allows study che...
