relationship between air pollution, weather, traffic, and traffic-related mortality
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 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...
متن کاملWeather-related mortality: how heat, cold, and heat waves affect mortality in the United States.
BACKGROUND Many studies have linked weather to mortality; however, role of such critical factors as regional variation, susceptible populations, and acclimatization remain unresolved. METHODS We applied time-series models to 107 US communities allowing a nonlinear relationship between temperature and mortality by using a 14-year dataset. Second-stage analysis was used to relate cold, heat, an...
متن کاملExtreme Weather Events, Mortality and Migration
We estimate the effect of extreme weather on life expectancy in the US. Using high frequency mortality data, we find that both extreme heat and extreme cold result in immediate increases in mortality. However, the increase in mortality following extreme heat appears entirely driven by near-term displacement, while the increase in mortality following extreme cold is long lasting. The aggregate e...
