We present a modelling concept for evaluating the impacts of anthropogenic activities suspected to be from gas flaring on the quality of the atmosphere using domestic roof-harvested rainwater (DRHRW) as indicator. We analysed seven metals (Cu, Cd, Pb...

UNLABELLED: This paper presents one of the first applications of deep learning (DL) techniques to predict air pollution time series. Air quality management relies extensively on time series data captured at air monitoring stations as the basis of ide...
This study addresses the development of a miniaturized (60 × 60 mm) Wireless Sensing Module (WSM) for environmental application and air quality detection. The proposed prototype has six sensors: one for humidity, one for ambient temperature (SHT21 fr...
BACKGROUND: Machine learning algorithms have very high predictive ability. However, no study has used machine learning to estimate historical concentrations of PM (particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter ≤ 2.5 μm) at daily time scale in China at...
Previous research suggested an association between maternal exposure to ambient air pollutants and risk of congenital heart defects (CHDs), though the effects of particulate matter ≤10μm in aerodynamic diameter (PM) on CHDs are inconsistent. We used ...

Understanding the impact on human health during peak episodes in air pollution is invaluable for policymakers. Particles less than PM can penetrate the respiratory system, causing cardiopulmonary and other systemic diseases. Statistical regression mo...
