In contrast, O3 increase by 0.58% in southern Europe, leading to a surge in unclean air days. Despite air quality advances, 86.3% of Europeans experience at least one compound event day per year, especially for PM2.5-NO2 and PM2.5-O3. We highlight the improvements in air quality control...
The results indicate that the current and future impacts of shipping emissions on pollutant concentrations are similar in some regions (NO2 for Northern Europe and SO2 for Southern Europe), which is due to the enforcement of emission control areas for those pollutants. However, efforts towards ...
The 2019 World Air Quality Report found that 72.7% of people living in Europe breathe air exceeding the WHO’s PM2.5 guideline for annual exposure (< 10 µg), while 98.8% of people breathe unhealthy air in South Asia, the most polluted region globally. High air pollution levels can ...

► We analyze the relationship between air quality (SO2 concentrations) and subjective well-being in Europe. ► We use multi-country, regional data on SO2 concentrations, and climate and macroeconomic controls. ► Regional data are merged with individual data from three waves of the European ...
Urban activities, particularly vehicle traffic, are contributing significantly to environmental pollution with detrimental effects on public health. The ability to anticipate air quality in advance is critical for public authorities and the general publi
Europe (EAQI) European Environment Agency devised the European Air Quality Index (EAQI). Five major air pollutants are measured: PM10 PM2.5 ground-level ozone (O3) nitrogen dioxide (NO2) sulphur dioxide (SO2) The index ranges from "Good" to "Extremely poor" for each pollutant category, ...
