Synoptic weather patterns and modification of the association between air pollution and human mortality.
To assess whether meteorological conditions modify the relationship between short-term exposure to ambient air pollution and mortality, an examination of air pollution and human mortality associations (ecologic) using hybrid spatial synoptic classification procedures was conducted. Concentrations of air pollutants and human mortality from all non-accidental and cardiorespiratory causes were exa...
متن کاملJ4.2 Synoptic Weather Patterns and Modification of the Association between Air Pollution and Human Mortality
Daily and seasonal fluctuations in mortality have been positively and significantly associated with ambient concentrations of atmospheric pollution and meteorological variables such as temperature and barometric pressure. However, much less is known about the health risk from atmospheric pollutants in the context of frequently occurring weather patterns. The objective of this study is to assess...

results there was a significant positive correlation between increase in the monthly average temperature, the number of rainy days, and the number of frost days with the number of rta (p < 0.05). increased monthly average relative humidity, evaporation, and number of sunny days were negatively correlated with the frequency of rta (p < 0.05). we also observed an inverse significant correlation b...
متن کاملSynoptic weather modeling and estimates of the exposure-response relationship between daily mortality and particulate air pollution.
This study estimated the association between particulate air pollution and daily mortality in Utah Valley using the synoptic climatological approach to control for potential weather effects. This approach was compared with alternative weather modeling approaches. Although seasonality explained a significant amount of variability in mortality, other weather variables explained only a very small ...
متن کاملRelationship Between Air Pollution, Weather, Traffic, and Traffic-Related Mortality
BACKGROUND Air pollution and weather are just two of many environmental factors contributing to traffic accidents (RTA). OBJECTIVES This study assessed the effects of these factors on traffic accidents and related mortalities in Ahvaz, Iran. METHODS In this ecological study, data about RTA, traffic-related mortalities, air pollution (including NO, CO, NO2, NOx PM10, SO2, and O3 rates) and c...
