Anthropogenic fugitive, combustion and industrial dust is a significant, underrepresented fine particulate matter source in global atmospheric models [PDF]

Environmental Research Letters, 2017
Global measurements of the elemental composition of fine particulate matter across several urban locations by the Surface Particulate Matter Network reveal an enhanced fraction of anthropogenic dust compared to natural dust sources, especially over Asia.

Fine particulate matter and depressive symptoms in children: A mediation model of physical activity and a moderation model of family poverty

SSM: Population Health, 2022
Rationale: Exposure to fine particulate matter has adverse effects on mental health outcomes. However, no empirical study has yet been conducted on mechanisms of how and why exposure to fine particulate matter can affect mental health outcomes ...

Excessive aggregation of fine particles may play a crucial role in adolescent spontaneous pneumothorax pathogenesis [PDF]

PeerJ, 2023
Background The pathogenesis of primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) is unclear. Fine particles aggregated in the lung can be phagocytosed by alveolar macrophages (AMs) to induce an inflammatory reaction and damage local pulmonary tissue, which could be

Monthly Global Estimates of Fine Particulate Matter and Their Uncertainty.

Environmental Science and Technology, 2021
Annual global satellite-based estimates of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) are widely relied upon for air-quality assessment. Here, we develop and apply a methodology for monthly estimates and uncertainties during the period 1998-2019, which combines ...
