Carbon Monoxide Urban Air Pollution: Cardiac Effects

Impact of California’s air pollution laws on black carbon and their implications for direct radiative forcing

We examine the temporal and the spatial trends in the concentrations of black carbon (BC) e recorded by the IMPROVE monitoring network for the past 20 years e in California. Annual average BC concentrations in California have decreased by about 50% from 0.46 mg m 3 in 1989 to 0.24 m gm 3 in 2008 compared to the corresponding reductions in diesel BC emissions (also about 50%) from a peak of 0.01...

Personal black carbon exposure influences ambulatory blood pressure: air pollution and cardiometabolic disease (AIRCMD-China) study.

Few prospective studies have assessed the blood pressure effect of extremely high air pollution encountered in Asia's megacities. The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between combustion-related air pollution with ambulatory blood pressure and autonomic function. During February to July 2012, personal black carbon was determined for 5 consecutive days using microaethalomet...

Wavelet Analysis of Air Pollution due to Carbon Monoxide

Carbon monoxide is the most abundant of the criteria pollutants. High concentration of Carbon monoxide generally occurs in areas with heavy traffic congestion. There are adverse effects on Human health due to the high concentration of CO in the atmosphere. The metropolitan cities are facing such type of problems a lot. In a given signal (data of average CO per day, observed by DPCC Anand Vihar,...
