although water and land pollution are very dangerous, air pollution has its own peculiarities due to its transboundary dispersion of pollutants over the entire world. in any well planned urban set up, industrial pollution takes a back seat and vehicular emissions take precedence as the major cause of urban air pollution. in the present study, air pollution tolerance index was calculated for var...

Air pollution has seriously hindered China’s sustainable development. The impact mechanism of industrial upgrading on air is still unclear, given the rapid digital economy. It necessary to analyze structure through To investigate and economy pollution, this paper selected advanced index construct a panel regression model explore improvement effect three typical areas zonal model. concentrations...

BACKGROUND Air pollution has been linked to increased rates of mortality, but little is known about individual characteristics related to the increase in risk. AIMS To examine short term effects of air pollution on daily mortality in elderly people in Bordeaux and compare characteristics of subjects > or =65 years old who died with levels of particulate air pollution. METHODS Daily mortalit...

air pollution is a major concern of new civilized world, which has a serious toxicological impact on human health and the environment. it has a number of different emission sources, but motor vehicles and industrial processes contribute the major part of air pollution.according to the world health organization, six major air pollutants include particle pollution, ground?level ozone, carbon mono...

Exposure to air pollution in city centers is of major concern because of its health-risks to urban dwellers, trafficcorridor users and even to in-transit commuters. The steady growth in traffic is the major source of toxic air pollutants in urban centers these days. Therefore, studying exposure to air pollutants in urban centers is of special interests to environmental health scientists. This s...

to assess the health impact of air pollution on bejaia population in the north of algeria, we carried out a descriptive epidemiologic inquiry near the medical establishments of three areas.from hospital admissions registers, we collected data on the hospital mortality and admissions relating to the various cardiorespiratory pathologies generated by this type of pollution. in parallel, data on t...

BACKGROUND Air pollution has many effects on the health of both adults and children, but children's vulnerability is unique. The aim of this review is to discuss the possible molecular mechanisms linking air pollution and asthma in children, also taking into account their genetic and epigenetic characteristics. RESULTS Air pollutants appear able to induce airway inflammation and increase asth...

The present study applies the model of American Meteorological Society-Environmental Protection Agency Regulatory Model (AERMOD) to investigate NO2 emissions from Besat thermal power plant, which is fuelled by natural gas to function. Results indicate that the simulated concentration of NO2 based on AERMOD, does not exceed NO2 concentration limit, set by the Iranian Ambient Air Quality Standard...

Ambient (outdoor) air pollution is now recognized as an important problem, both nationally and worldwide. Our scientific understanding of the spectrum of health effects of air pollution has increased, and numerous studies are finding important health effects from air pollution at levels once considered safe. Children and infants are among the most susceptible to many of the air pollutants. In a...
