Hourly meteorological data were also obtained from REMMAQ stations and aggregated into 24 h average variables. These were used in the analysis to control for the effects of temperature and relative humidity, which have known associations with both respiratory health outcomes and daily pollution concentr...
Therefore, our model results did not capture temporal variations in temperature at hourly or daily time scales, which can be important features of heat management in specific circumstances. For example, high nighttime temperatures are strongly associated with excess morbidity in extreme heat events and...
The standardised removal rates of ozone can be as high as 0.4 g/m2/y/ppb [15], while the mean annual reduction of the ozone hourly concentration varies from 0.1% to 1.5% [15]. In parallel, trees absorb ozone and assimilate NOx. Their assimilation capacity differs up to a factor of ...
In order to create visualization tools that make continuous and discrete state/federal data more accessible and understandable, EPA and States have determined it is important to present real-time (e.g., hourly concentration values) along with appropriate caveats. Examples of caveats include marking ...
