Collection and monitoring of Particulate Matter: The aerodynamic properties of particles determine how they are transported in air and how they can be removed from it. These properties also govern how far they get into the air passages of the respiratory system. Additionally, they provide information on the chemical composition and the sources of particles. Particles have irregular shapes and their aerodynamic behaviour is expressed in terms of the diameter of an idealised sphere. The sampling and
Weuve et al., (2012) studied the effects of exposure to particulate matter in 19,409 women; ages 70-81. They measured the women’s cognition by telephone interviews in 2 year intervals (Weuve et al., 2012). In the interviews,, they had the women do various tasks that to test their general cognition, verbal memory,, category frequency, working memory, and attention (Weuve et al., 2012). An example of a task is to name as many animals as could in 1 minute (Weuve et al., 2012). The tasks were varied
Introduction & Background: The World Health Organization (WHO) has defined particulate matter (PM2.5), as an outdoor air pollutant. Also known as air pollution, aerosols, and “fine” particulate matter, PM2.5 has emerged as one of the most significant environmental and public health concerns over the past several decades. PM2.5 has revealed to hold detrimental affects on human health and is attributable to over 130,0000 deaths annually according to 2005 air quality levels (Hoek et al. 2013; CDC)

Article 1 Overview: This study investigated the utilization of satellite information to screen carbon monoxide (CO) and particulate matter (PM) in Northern Thailand throughout the dry season when woodland flames are known to be a vital reason for air contamination. Satellite information, incorporating Measurement of Pollution in the Troposphere (MOPITT) CO, Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer vaporized optical profundity (MODIS AOD), and MODIS fire hotspots, were examined with air contamination
during pregnancy. The most severe affects from these toxins include cancer, short-and-long-term morbidity, and stillbirth. Still damaging, yet less traumatizing effects include low birth weight, small for gestational age, and preterm birth. PM2.5 is particulate matter in the air. One study shows it reduces birth weight by 3.1 g (Gray, 2013). Because most of air
As a company, you have already done your research and began stepping in the proper direction for creating an overall sanitary and healthy atmosphere for your guests and employees. At the moment, I believe you have just under 7 of the Airius Air Pear with PHI cell units in your facility, that have been purchased over the past few months in multiple orders. With my study of these products, I’ve come to realize the the great impact they can have on your environment. Typically, where I would love
Pollution - Particulate matter Paragraph: Also, air pollutants in the form of particulate matter is harmful to our health. Short-term effects like irritation to the eyes, nose and throat and long-term health effects like lung cancer, heart disease are all possible results. The continual exposure to air pollution can affect the lungs of children and complicate medical conditions in the elderly. Even worse, it can cause the brain damage of growing kids or deaths.

the input data-set. The expected/ predicted source compositions must all have non-negative values. Any given source cannot have a negative proportion of an element or any other given pollutant species. The predicted source contributions to the particulate aerosols or any other environmental pollutants of interest must all be non-negative. Any given source cannot emit negative mass. The sum of the
Pollution, otherwise known as PM, or particulate matter, is essentially any substance that is not made up of water. PM is most commonly made of dust, ash, smoke, fumes, vapors and mists, emitted from a source and absorbed into the ozone. Particulate matter that is emitted directly from a source, is called primary PM. Particulate matter that is formed in the atmosphere by gas is called secondary PM. There are two certified health based standards classifying particulate matter: PM10, for particles smaller
