Deciphering the role of radical precursors during the Second Texas Air Quality Study.(NOTEBOOK PAPER)(Report)
Nov 01, 2009; ... ABSTRACT The Texas Environmental Research Consortium (TERC) funded significant components of the Second Texas Air Quality Study (TexAQS II), including the TexAQS II Radical and Aerosol Measurement Project (TRAMP) and instrumented flights by a Piper Aztec aircraft. These ...
A comparative analysis of modeled and monitored ambient hazardous air pollutants in Texas: a novel approach using concordance correlation.(TECHNICAL PAPER)(Report)
Nov 01, 2009; ... ABSTRACT Often, in studies evaluating the health effects of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs), researchers rely on ambient air levels to estimate exposure. Two potential data sources are modeled estimates from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Assessment System for ...
[PM.sub.4] crystalline silica emission factors and ambient concentrations at aggregate-producing sources in California.(TECHNICAL PAPER)(Report)
Nov 01, 2009; ... ABSTRACT The California Construction and Industrial Minerals Association and the National Stone, Sand, & Gravel Association have sponsored tests at three sand and gravel plants in California to compile crystalline silica emission factors for particulate matter (PM) of ...
Application of optimally scaled target factor analysis for assessing source contribution of ambient [PM.sub.10].(TECHNICAL PAPER)(particulate matter in highly industrialized area in Spain)(Report)
Nov 01, 2009; ... ABSTRACT Speciated coarse particulate matter ([PM.sub.10]) data obtained at three air quality monitoring sites in a highly industrialized area in Spain between 2002 and 2007 were analyzed for assessing source contribution of ambient particulate matter (PM). The source ...
An optimal spatial configuration of sample sites for air pollution monitoring.(TECHNICAL PAPER)(Report)
Nov 01, 2009; ... ABSTRACT A novel sampling design is proposed that optimizes the spatial configuration of sampling sites and captures maximum intraurban variability in ambient air pollution with a minimum sample size. Unlike the classical sampling design, a deterministic approach is adopted and ...
