Introduction After 40 years of rapid economic development, China has become the second largest economy of the world and the largest emitter of fossil fuel exhaust into the atmosphere with a significant...
including mortality and morbidity. Data from monitoring sites worldwide show levels of ozone often exceeding EU legislation threshold and the more restrictive WHO guidelines for the protection of human health. Well-established evidence has been produced for short-term effects, especially on respiratory a...
Comprehensive exposure-response coefficients were obtained based on Meta-analysis of epidemiologic studies, and then by using ozone concentration data from Pearl River Delta regional air quality monitoring network, human health impacts of ozone pollutant in Pearl River Delta region during 2006~2012were as...
Health impacts of climate change and ozone depletion: an ecoepidemiologic modeling approach. Anthropogenic climate changes and stratospheric ozone depletion affect human health in various ways. Current mainstream epidemiologic research methods do n... WJ Martens - 《Environmental Health Perspectives》 被引...

How reducing ozone precursors could slow down the impacts of climate change From the perspective of human health impacts, there is “good” ozone and “bad” ozone. Natural ozone in the second major layer of Earth’s atmosphere has a protective effect for humans, blocking the sun’s harmful...
Ozone can be an agent of good or harm, depending on where you find it in the atmosphere. Way up in the stratosphere, the colorless gas shields the Earth from the sun’s harsh ultraviolet rays. But closer to the ground, ozone is a harmful air pollutant that can trigger chronic health pr...
Explain. What are the biological impacts of these actions? Explain. What are the effects of climate change/global warming on animal life? What were some specific nuclear meltdowns around the world and what were there effects on human health and the environment? How do human beings negatively ...
Assessment of spatial and temporal variation in the impacts of ozone on human health, vegetation, and climate requires appropriate metrics. A key component of the Tropospheric Ozone Assessment Report (TOAR) is the consistent calculation of these metrics at thousands of monitoring sites globally. Inves...
