Variability in mobility-based air pollution exposure assessment: Effects of GPS tracking duration and temporal resolution of air pollution maps

Environment International
Mobility-based exposure assessment of air pollution has been proposed as a potentially more valid approach than home-based assessments. However, methodological uncertainties in operationalizing mobility-based assessment may still increase inaccuracies in
