A method of assessing air toxics concentrations in urban areas using mobile platform measurements.
The objective of this paper is to demonstrate an approach to characterize the spatial variability in ambient air concentrations using mobile platform measurements. This approach may be useful for air toxics assessments in Environmental Justice applications, epidemiological studies, and environmental health risk assessments. In this study, we developed and applied a method to characterize air to...

Research Center is to develop and support research that will yield a better understanding of the potential risks posed to human health by exposure to air toxics. The Center's research program, developed col-laboratively by scientific experts from academia, industry and government , seeks to fill the gaps in scientific data that are required to make sound environmental health public policy decis...
متن کامل1 Air Quality and Ethanol in Gasoline
Ethanol in gasoline can favorably impact mobile source emissions in five main air quality areas: these areas are fine particulate matter (e.g., PM2.5), carbon monoxide, toxics, ozone, and global warming. In this era of credit trading and with new data there is always a lot to do to integrate these air quality areas with respect to ethanol. For example, ethanol currently is the only compound tha...
متن کاملExposures to multiple air toxics in New York City.
Efforts to assess health risks associated with exposures to multiple urban air toxics have been hampered by the lack of exposure data for people living in urban areas. The TEACH (Toxic Exposure Assessment, a Columbia/Harvard) study was designed to characterize levels of and factors influencing personal exposures to urban air toxics among high school students living in inner-city neighborhoods o...
متن کاملLevels of Fine Particulate Matter Bound Trace Metals in Air of Glass Industrial Area; Firozabad
The present study deals with sequential extraction of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) bound trace metals in an industrial area of Firozabad, India. During the study period, daily PM2.5 concentration ranged between 73.49 μg/m3 and 113.26 μg/m3 with poor air quality index of 196.37. In the present study, Ca recorded the highest while Co had the lowest concentration among all analysed metals. Mn, ...
