متن کاملAmbient air pollution and risk of congenital anomalies in England, 1991-1999.
OBJECTIVES To investigate whether there is an association between risk of congenital anomaly and annual ward level exposure to air pollution in England during the 1990s. METHODS A geographical study was conducted across four regions of England using population-based congenital anomaly registers, 1991-1999. Exposure was measured as 1996 annual mean background sulphur dioxide (SO(2)), nitrogen ...
متن کاملEvaluation and Application of the Gaussian-Log Gaussian Spatial Model for Robust Bayesian Prediction of Tehran Air Pollution Data
Air pollution is one of the major problems of Tehran metropolis. Regarding the fact that Tehran is surrounded by Alborz Mountains from three sides, the pollution due to the cars traffic and other polluting means causes the pollutants to be trapped in the city and have no exit without appropriate wind guff. Carbon monoxide (CO) is one of the most important sources of pollution in Tehran air. The...
متن کاملSpatial and Temporal Dynamics in Air Pollution Exposure Assessment
Analyzing individual exposure in urban areas offers several challenges where both the individual's activities and air pollution levels demonstrate a large degree of spatial and temporal dynamics. This review article discusses the concepts, key elements, current developments in assessing personal exposure to urban air pollution (seventy-two studies reviewed) and respective advantages and disadva...
