Assessment of air quality has been traditionally conducted by ground based monitoring, and
more recently by manned aircrafts and satellites. However, performing fast, comprehensive …

Airborne particulate matter poses a serious threat to human health. Exposure to nanosized
(< 0.1 μm), vehicle-derived particulates may be hazardous due to their bioreactivity, their …

Shipping emissions have significant influence on atmospheric environment as well as
human health, especially in coastal areas and the harbour districts. However, the …

A total of 252 emission plumes of ships operating in the Mediterranean Sea and around the
Arabian Peninsula were investigated using a comprehensive dataset of gas-and submicron …

Four measurement campaigns were performed in two different environments–inside the
harbour areas in the city centre of Helsinki, and along the narrow shipping channel near the …

Pollutants from fishing boats have generally been neglected worldwide, and there is an
acute shortage of measured emission data, especially in China. Therefore, on-board …

Studies of detailed chemical compositions in particles with different size ranges emitted from
ships are in serious shortage. In this study, size-segregated distributions and characteristics …

The main objective of this work was to quantify the impact of handling of bulk materials on
PM 10 levels measured at the port-city border of Alicante (Spain), located on the western …

This research demonstrates the use of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to characterize
the gaseous (CO 2) and particle (10–500 nm) emissions of a ship at sea. The field study was …

In this study, we evaluated the emission rates of ambient fine particulate matter (PM 2.5)
mass, particle number (PN), and black carbon (BC) from sources at the Ports of Los Angeles …
