background & aims of the study: recent studies indicated that particulate matter can have the lung irritation, chronic lung diseases, lung tissue, etc. the aim objective of this study was to assess the mortality associated with exposure to pm10 concentrations in ilam, iran, during 2013. materials & methods: pm10 data were taken from ilam's local agency of environment (i-lae). the annual mo...

results: participants’ concerns were classified into 4 main themes, including: inability, aging, isolation, and healthiness. conclusions: understanding these concerns might contribute to the enrichment of the existing literature by providing evidences from a different culture, assisting to design effective supportive strategies, planning training programs and appropriate infrastructures for wom...

foliar surface of plants is continuously exposed to the surrounding atmosphere and is, therefore, the main receptor of particulate pollutants. this physical trait can be used to determine the level of particulate pollution in the surroundings, as well as the ability of individual plant species to intercept and mitigate particulate pollutants. in the present study, leaf cuticle characters of fou...

background: the aim of study was to measure particle matter concentration (pm 1, pm 2.5 and pm 10 ) during normal, semi-dust and dust-event days. the impacts of some meteorological factors on particle matter concentrations were also investigated. methods: samples were collected by grimm aerosol technik (gmbh model 1/108 germany) from november 2011 to may 2012. temperature, humidity, wind speed ...
