Air Survey (NYCCAS), are primarily centered around defined “criteria pollutants,” including PM2.5, PM10, ozone (O3), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulphur dioxide (SO2), and carbon monoxide (CO). Numerous other chemicals, however, exist in our air and contribute to adverse health effects. ...
Once the AQI surpasses 150, it is considered "Code Red," unhealthy for some members of the general public who may experience health effects, with sensitive groups experiencing more severe effects. Click here to learn more. -ABC News' Julia Jacobo Jun 08, 2023, 6:44 AM CST NYC air ...
10 Negative health effects of air pollutants have been shown on multiple respiratory diseases, including respiratory infections,18, 19, 20 asthma,21, 22 chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD),23 lung cancer, even in combination with stroke and heart diseases as reviewed.3, 24, 25, 26 We...
Keywords Air quality index, Air pollution, Health effects Air pollution has emerged as a critical global environmental concern and has attracted considerable research attention1,2. Approximately 90% of the population over the world live in areas where the ambient air quality fails to meet ...
NYC contains a population of approximately 8.4 million people and has a population density of 27,750 people per square mile (New York State Department of Health, 2011; NYCdata, 2018). This Region, which encompasses 302.65 square miles, contains 15 central monitoring air quality stations with 43...

(LCZ). Low-cost PM2.5sensors were installed both indoor and outdoor. The outdoor sensors’ data were highly correlated with the closest regulatory air quality monitoring station (median R2 = 0.62, IQ range: [0.5, 0.71]). Indoor and outdoor PM2.5levels were highly correlated (median R2...
“Very Unhealthy” AQI is 201 – 300. This would trigger a health alert signifying that everyone may experience more serious health effects. “Hazardous” AQI greater than 300. This would trigger health warnings of emergency conditions. The entire population is more likely to be affected. ...
This is called air quality as balance must be achieved between thermal comfort and air quality in healthcare facilities to improve IAQ. This paper spots and discusses the current status to set the factors that affect the indoor air quality and assess its effects in the light of the corona ...
We used the improvements in NYC air quality during the COVID-19 shutdown, which impacted a range of economic sectors associated with combustion-related air pollution emissions, to develop a hypothetical low emission scenario to simulate potential future health and economic benefits over the five-...
