Robust air quality monitoring is the backbone of AQM because it helps determine the extent and evolution of air pollution in an area. It subsequently informs the design and prioritization of...
Since 1998, Beijing has prioritized air pollution control and moved aggressively to control emissions from all sources. The city’s efforts in this endeavour over the past 15 years is...
Abstract - Short-term effects of air pollution on mortality have been well documented in the literature worldwide. Less is known about which subpopulations are more vulnerable to air pollution. We...
Abstract - Several studies show that a significant portion of daily air pollution exposure, in particular black carbon (BC), occurs during transport. In a previous work, a model for the in-traffic...
To evaluate the effectiveness of the integrated control measures for reducing PM2.5 (aerosol particles with an aerodynamic diameter of less than 2.5 μm) and hazy weather, day- and...
For a 40-year horizon (1990–2030), on-road vehicle exhaust emissions were evaluated, retrospectively and prospectively, for the largest urban agglomeration in India – the Greater Delhi...
China’s fuel quality standards and fuel supply management have long been an impediment to improved air quality by hindering the progress of vehicle emission control. This paper summarizes...
Haze is a serious air pollution problem in China, especially in Beijing and surrounding areas, affecting visibility, public health and regional climate. In this study, the Weather Research and...
High resolution concentrations of nitric oxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), and Ozone (O3) were measured at a urban site (urban...
Haze pollution in Beijing is rather deteriorated. Long-term measurement of PM2.5 from 2005 to 2010 at an urban site in Beijing showed very high concentration level with an annual...
