To monitor health risks associated with vaping, we introduce a multi-spectral optical sensor powered by machine learning for real-time characterization of electronic cigarette aerosols. The sensor can accurately measure the mass of particulate matter...
PM bound mercury (PBM) in the atmosphere is a major component of total mercury, which is a pollutant of global concern and a potent neurotoxicant when converted to methylmercury. Despite its importance, comprehensive macroanalyses of PBM on large sca...

Air quality models are increasingly important in air pollution forecasting and control. Sectoral emissions significantly impact the accuracy of air quality models and source apportionment. This paper studied the 3DVar (three-dimensional variational) ...
Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
Oct 18, 2024
The presence of fine particulate matter (PM) indoors constitutes a significant component of overall PM exposure, as individuals spend 90% of their time indoors; however, personal monitoring for large cohorts is often impractical. In light of this, th...

In this study, a strategy is proposed to use the congestion index as a new input feature. This approach can reveal more deeply the complex effects of traffic conditions on variations in particulate matter (PM) concentrations. To assess the effectiven...
Accurate prediction of PM concentrations in ports is crucial for authorities to combat ambient air pollution effectively and protect the health of port staff. However, in port clusters formed by multiple neighboring ports, we encountered several chal...
This paper leverages a data-driven two-step approach to effectively evaluate the effects of COVID-19 lockdown on air pollution in both the short and long-term in China. Using air pollution, meteorological conditions, and air mass clusters from 34 air...
The development of multifunctional nanofibrous membranes (NFMs) that enable anti-viral protection during air purification and respiratory disease diagnosis for health management is of increasing importance. Herein, we unraveled a heterostructure-enha...
Environmental monitoring and assessment
Sep 12, 2024
Air pollution and climate change are two complementary forces that directly or indirectly affect the environment's physical, chemical, and biological processes. The air quality index is a parameter defined to cope with this effect of air pollution. T...
