While human mobility plays a crucial role in determining air pollution exposures and health risks, research to-date has assessed risks based solely on residential location. Here we leveraged a database of ~ 130 million workers in the US and…
High air pollution levels are associated with school absences. However, low level pollution impact on individual school absences are under-studied. We modelled PM2.5 and ozone concentrations at 36 schools from July 2015 to June 2018 using…
Ground level Ozone is one of the six common air-pollutants on which the EPA has set national air quality standards. In order to capture the spatio-temporal trend of 1-hour and 8-hour average ozone concentration in the US, we develop a…
We develop new methodology to improve our understanding of the causal effects of multivariate air pollution exposures on public health. Typically, exposure to air pollution for an individual is measured at their home geographic region,…
Ambient exposure to fine particulate matters of diameters smaller than 2.5{\mu}m (PM2.5) has been identified as one critical cause for respiratory disease. Disparities in exposure to PM2.5 among income groups at individual residences are…
Air pollution is a pressing environmental risk to public health, particularly in cities where population density and pollution levels are high. Traditional methods for exposure analysis often rely on census data, but recent studies…
Laboratory experiments have shown that cardiovascular diseases are positively correlated to the concentration of ambient air pollutants, such as SO2, NO2, PM10, etc. It has also been repeatedly reported in many countries that increased…
Mexico City tracks ground-level ozone levels to assess compliance with national ambient air quality standards and to prevent environmental health emergencies. Ozone levels show distinct daily patterns, within the city, and over the course…
Issues regarding air quality and related health concerns have prompted this study, which develops an accurate and computationally fast, efficient hybrid modeling system that combines numerical modeling and machine learning for forecasting…
Air pollutant exposure exhibits significant spatial and temporal variability, with localized hotspots, particularly in traffic microenvironments, posing health risks to commuters. Although widely used for air quality assessment, fixed-site…
Many studies have sought to determine if there is an association between air quality and acute deaths. Many consider it plausible that current levels of air quality cause acute deaths. However, several factors call causation and even…
Nowadays air pollution becomes one of the biggest world issues in both developing and developed countries. Helping individuals understand their air pollution exposure and health risks, the traditional way is to utilize data from static…
A long-standing expectation is that large, dense, and cosmopolitan areas support socioeconomic mixing and exposure between diverse individuals. It has been difficult to assess this hypothesis because past approaches to measuring…
According to the Lancet report on the global burden of disease published in October 2020, air pollution is among the five highest risk factors for global health, reducing life expectancy on average by 20 months. This paper describes a…
This paper presents an approach to estimating the health effects of an environmental hazard. The approach is general in nature, but is applied here to the case of air pollution. It uses a computer model involving ambient pollution and…
Aircraft noise exposure has traditionally been assessed using static residential population data and long-term average noise metrics, often overlooking the dynamic nature of human mobility and temporal variations in operational conditions.…
The location of active users is an important factor in the performance analysis of mobile multicell networks, but it is difficult to quantify due to the wide variety of user mobility and session patterns. In particular, the channel holding…
High temperatures are associated with adverse respiratory health outcomes and increases in ambient air pollution. Limited research has quantified air pollution's mediating role in the relationship between temperature and respiratory…
Evaluating human exposure to environmental hazards is crucial for identifying susceptible communities and devising targeted health policies. Standard environmental hazard exposure assessment methods have been primarily based on place of…
The first goal of this study is to quantify the magnitude and spatial variability of air quality changes in the US during the COVID-19 pandemic. We focus on two federally regulated pollutants, nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and fine particulate…
