Short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) and unchecked carbon dioxide emissions are the main contributors to climate change and pose a serious threat to human health. This...
Fires accompanied human development throughout the Holocene, leaving behind black carbon (BC) as residues from incomplete biomass burning. Here we used molecular fire markers, benzene...
BACKGROUND: Ultrafine particles (UFPs) have been associated with adverse health outcomes in children, but studies are often limited by surrogate estimates of exposure. Accurately...
Abstract
Background: Ozone and PM2.5 are current risk factors for premature death all over the globe. In coming decades, substantial improvements in public health may be achieved by...
Many cookstove studies conducted in the field fail to measure meaningful differences between different stove technologies. Although meaningful differences do not always exist, significant...
Abstract: Aerosol optical property is essential to the tropospheric ozone formation mechanism while it was rarely measured in ozone-rich environment for a specific study. With the retrieved...
Abstract – Background: Climate change is likely to increase the threat of wildfires, and little is known about how wildfires affect health in exposed communities. A better understanding of...
The higher altitude regions of Himalayas and Tibetan Plateau are influenced by the dust and black carbon (BC) aerosols from the emissions and long-range transport from the adjoining areas. In this...
In situ and columnar measurements of aerosol optical properties (AOPs) [Aerosol optical depth (AOD), Angstrom Exponent (AE), Aerosol scattering (σscat) and absorption (σabs)...
Multi-year sets of ground-based sun-photometer measurements conducted at 12 Arctic sites and 9 Antarctic sites were examined to determine daily mean values of aerosol optical thickness τ(λ)...
