Guidelines & Tools AirQ+ Published 2019 Share SHARE Facebook share Twitter LinkedIn Copy URL Email Breadcrumb Home Resource Library AirQ+ WHO/Europe's software tool AirQ+ performs calculations that allow quantification of the health effects of exposure to air pollution, including estimates of the reduction in life expectancy. AirQ+ estimates: the effects of short-term changes in air pollution (based on risk estimates from time-series studies); the effects of long-term exposures (using life-tables approach and based on risk estimates from cohort studies). AirQ+ can be used, with some limitations, for cities, countries or regions to estimate: Â How much of a particular health effect is attributable to selected air pollutants? Compared to the current scenario, what would be the change in health effects if air pollution levels changed in the future?
