Subsequent chapters detail the case studies of Los Angeles and the MCMA; the forces driving air pollution in the MCMA; its effects on health; the science of air pollution; the science of measuring, analyzing, and monitoring; the key role of the transportation sector; and finally, ...
This thesis examines the impact of aircraft emissions on local air quality by performing two analyses: an assessment of U.S. commercial aircraft contribution to county budgets of primary pollutants in nonattainment areas, and an assessment of the health effects caused by commercial aircraft emissions...
The Value of Clean Air: Comparing Discounting of Delayed Air Quality and Money Across Magnitudes The detrimental health effects of exposure to air pollution are well established. Fostering behavioral change concerning air quality may be challenging bec... MS Berry,JE Friedel,WB Dehart,... - 《Ps...

(UHI), characterized by higher temperatures in urban areas compared to their surrounding rural areas, is a consequence of urbanization, driven by unique urban surfaces and anthropogenic heat release. UHI carries numerous adverse effects, including increased energy consumption, air pollution, degradation ...
Our analysis suggests that even after controlling for seasonal and local fixed effects, higher air pollution significantly reduces life satisfaction. The adverse effect of transient increases in air pollution is greater on individuals with poor health status. Estimating the average compensating differential...
The oxidative potential (OP) of particulate matter (PM) is a major driver of PM-associated health effects. In India, the emission sources defining PM-OP, and their local/regional nature, are yet to be established. Here, to address this gap we determine t
Evolving evidence indicates that health effects may vary in type and degree depending on the source of PM2.5exposure10. Source-specific epidemiological studies are still scarce, though, as such separation requires high quality exposure data that has not been available previously. Air pollution is far...
