Air Pollution and Stroke [PDF]
Journal of Stroke, 2018 The adverse health effects of air pollution have long been recognised; however, there is less awareness that the majority of the morbidity and mortality caused by air pollution is due to its effects on the cardiovascular system. Evidence from epidemiological studies have demonstrated a strong association between air pollution and cardiovascular ...

Significant Impact of Rossby Waves on Air Pollution Detected by Network Analysis [PDF]
, 2019 Air pollution is associated with human diseases and has been found to be related to premature mortality. In response, environmental policies have been adopted in many countries, to decrease anthropogenic air pollution for the improvement of long-term air quality, since most air pollutant sources are anthropogenic.

Effects of thermal inversion induced air pollution on COVID-19 [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Air pollution is a threat to human health, in particular since it aggravates respiratory diseases. Early COVID-19 outbreaks in Wuhan, China and Lombardy, Italy coincided with high levels of air pollution drawing attention to a potential role of particulate matter and other pollutants in infections and more severe outcomes of the new lung disease.
