Developing methodology for exposure assessment of air pollutants in schools [PDF]
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Master of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.Increasing evidence suggests that exposures to air pollutants present in indoor environments are contributing factors to the recently observed increase in ...

High-Throughput Geocoding to Assess Short-Term Air Pollution in Correlation With Mortality in a French Cancer Patient Cohort. [PDF]
Although chronic air pollution exposure is linked to lung cancer mortality, the short‐term effects of fluctuating air quality on overall cancer mortality remain uncertain. Here, the authors applied geomatics and machine‐learning models to retrospectively examine possible associations between 31‐day pollution exposure and mortality in a French cancer ...

Soil-Air exchange controls on background atmospheric concentrations of organochlorine pesticides [PDF]
Soils are the major terrestrial reservoir of persistent organic pollutants, and thus net volatilization from soil, when it happens, may exert a control on the atmospheric occurrence and variability of organic pollutants.

A Mechanistic Review of Environmental Stressor to Decode Their Effect on Congenital Malformations: A Developmental Toxicity. [PDF]
Environmental toxicants may disrupt developmental pathways via strong molecular docking interactions with hub FGF proteins (FGF9 and FGF4) like dibenzo‐p‐dioxin (−7.2 kcal/mol) at the ASN146 residue of FGF9, driving congenital malformations as revealed by PPI networks and toxicity profiling.

ENVIE Co-ordination action on indoor air quality and health effects; WP3 Final report – Characterisation of spaces and source [PDF]
Human exposure to environmental pollutants occurs via various pathways. For many pollutants, especially the volatile ones, air exposure is the dominant pathway.

Background Pollution's effect on AERMOD Air Quality Modeling [PDF]
Air pollution is the presence of harmful substances in the air at concentrations sufficient to cause adverse effects. This includes solid, liquid, or gaseous pollutants, as well as radioactive and non-radioactive radiation, present at levels and ...

AIR POLLUTION AND RADIOACTIVITY CIRCULATION PROBLEMS [PDF]
The role of meteorology in the study of large-scale air pollution problems is reviewed. Applications of natural and artificial radioactivity in studies on the atmosphere are described. Weather conditions resulting in area- wide air pollution and activities in progress to study them are discussed.

Application of linear minimum variance estimation to the multi-model ensemble of atmospheric radioactive Cs-137 with observations [PDF]
Great efforts have been made to simulate atmospheric pollutants, but their spatial and temporal distributions are still highly uncertain. Observations can measure their concentrations with high accuracy but cannot estimate their spatial distributions due

COMBINED USE OF OPEN-AIR AND INDOOR FUMIGATION SYSTEMS TO STUDY EFFECTS OF SO-2 ON LEACHING PROCESSES IN SCOTS PINE LITTER [PDF]
Both an open-air fumigation system and a laboratory-based system were used to expose decomposing Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) needles to controlled concentrations of SO2 (arithmetric mean less-than-or-equal-to 48 nl litre-1) during a period, in total,
