Primary air pollutant emissions of coal-fired power plants in China: Current status and future prediction. Atmos. Environ. 42, 8442–8452 (2008). Article CAS ADS Google Scholar Zhang, Q. et al. NOx emission trends for China, 1995–2004: The view from the ground and the view from space...
The emission factor method was adopted to better understand the emissions characteristics of primary air pollutants from combustion engine vehicles and to improve pollution control. In combination with the air quality improvement goals and the status of social and economic development during the 14th ...
Give two specific examples of how air pollutants harm the environment. Which types of cancer are most commonly associated with environmental risk factors? What are the major sources of outdoor air pollution? Identify the four main categories of hydrocarbon pollutants and discuss their individual impact...
This paper presents the findings from a study that was conducted to evaluate whether air quality index (AQI), three primary pollutants (PM2.5, PM10 and CO), Ground level ozone (O3) and three meteorological variables (temperature, relative humidity, wind speed) have promoted the COVID-19 ...
The Five Eyes—the intelligence consortium of the rich English-speaking countries (the US, Canada, the UK, Australia, and New Zealand)—have issued a “Statement of Principles on Access to Evidence and Encryption” where they claim their needs for surveillance outweigh everyone’s needs for secur...
Atmospheric processing of particles and their precursor gases from terrestrial, marine, and various anthropogenic primary and secondary sources determines the chemical composition and physical properties of particulate matter (PM). Varying meteorological conditions influence these physical and chemical properties...
Even short-term exposure over hours or days increases the risk of heart attack, stroke, heart failure, abnormal heartbeats and sudden death. "Most physicians don't know that air pollution causes cardiovascular problems," which is the primary way it kills, he said. Climate change is a health ...
Tons of invasive algae of the genusRugulopteryxreach the coasts of southern Spain every year. Their effect is catastrophic on marine ecosystems and the entire economy of the affected areas. Tourism plummets and fishing disappears. A solution to this problem is urgently needed. Traditional worm com...
The health impact of air pollution is particularly costly for children because their respiratory system and immune system are not yet fully developed (Buka et al., 2006; Proietti et al., 2013; WHO, 2018). Existing research shows that air pollutants exposure during pregnancy and infancy can ...
pointed out that carpets, books and computers were the potential sources of chemical pollution, and their toxic pollutants posed a threat to human health [11]. Some surveys found that inhabitants might worry about the microwave generated by mobile communication systems while sleeping [12,13], this...
