Neurodevelopmental Deceleration by Urban Fine Particles from Different Emission Sources: A Longitudinal Observational Study
BACKGROUND A few studies have reported associations between traffic-related air pollution exposure at schools and cognitive development. The role of PM components or sources other than traffic on cognitive development has been little explored. OBJECTIVES We aimed to explore the role of PM sources in school air on cognitive development. METHODS A cohort of 2,618 schoolchildren (average age, ...
متن کاملCharacteristics and Sources of Fine Particulate Matter in Urban Air
Particulate matter is an important component of the air pollution mixture that has been linked to various adverse health outcomes as well as having general environmental effects. It is not yet clear which causative agents and underlying mechanisms are responsible for these adverse health effects. However, it is likely that the source of the particles, a factor which influences their characteris...
متن کاملWayfinding characteristics and familiarity indexes in an urban environment
Many people are encountered with finding the best way to reach to their destination. One definition for wayfinding is “the act of travelling to the destination by continuous processes of making route-choices whilst evaluating previous spatial decisions against stable cognition of the environment. General understanding and keen appraisal of the environment can aid decision-making process of how...
متن کاملCharacteristics of Fine Particles in an Urban Atmosphere—Relationships with Meteorological Parameters and Trace Gases
Atmospheric fine particles (diameter < 1 μm) attract a growing global health concern and have increased in urban areas that have a strong link to nucleation, traffic emissions, and industrial emissions. To reveal the characteristics of fine particles in an industrial city of a developing country, two-year measurements of particle number size distribution (15.1 nm-661 nm), meteorological paramet...
متن کاملJovian, Solar, and other Possible Sources of Radiation Belt Particles
It is well known that electrons, protons, and heavier ions can be accelerated to high energies (~1 MeV) throughout the solar system by a variety of mechanisms. We review several of the sources of energetic ions and electrons that can produce enhanced fluxes of particles near the Earth's orbit. Solar energetic particles and particles accelerated at interplanetary shock waves are considered. We a...
