Risk assessment studies often ignore within-city variations of air pollutants. Our objective was to quantify the risk associated with fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) exposure in 2 urban …
Particulate matter (PM) is the major air pollution problem with health impacts in Estonia. The prevailing sources of particles are traffic and local heating. In this study, we quantified the …
Ambient air pollution in terms of fine and coarse particulate matter (PM2. 5 and PM10) has been shown to increase adult and infant mortalities. Most studies have estimated the risk of …
