Given the interaction of the numerous factors involved in the raising of the atmospheric pollution rates, it should be considered that the relation between the intensity of emission produced by the polluting source and the resulting pollution is not immediate. The aim of this study was to realise and to compare two support decision system (neural networks and multivariate regression model) that, correlating the air quality data with the meteorological information, are able to predict the critical pollution events. The development of a back-propagation neural network is presented to predict the daily PM 10 concentration 1, 2 and 3 days early. The measurements obtained by the territorial monitoring stations are one of the primary data sources; the forecasting of the major weather parameters available on the website and the forecasting of the Saharan dust obtained by the "Centro Nacional de Supercomputaciòn" website, satellite images and back trajectories analysis are used for the weather input data. The results obtained with the neural network were compared with those obtained by a multivariate linear regression model for 1 and 2 days forecasting. The relative root mean square error for both methods shows that the artificial neural networks (ANN) gives more accurate results than the multivariate linear regression model mostly for 1 day forecasting; moreover, the regression model used, in spite of ANN, failed when it had to fit spiked high values of PM 10 concentration.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/14611521" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="d566455b6592d3d8a4ddc3e10feb55cd" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":44036513,"asset_id":14611521,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/44036513/download_file?st=MTc0MDU1OTQwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="33562204" href="https://cnr-it.academia.edu/PierinaIelpo">Pierina Ielpo</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="33562204" type="text/json">{"id":33562204,"first_name":"Pierina","last_name":"Ielpo","domain_name":"cnr-it","page_name":"PierinaIelpo","display_name":"Pierina Ielpo","profile_url":"https://cnr-it.academia.edu/PierinaIelpo?f_ri=11976","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/33562204/15476951/16090269/s65_pierina.ielpo.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_14611521 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="14611521"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 14611521, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_14611521", });

The relative root mean square error for both methods shows that the artificial neural networks (ANN) gives more accurate results than the multivariate linear regression model mostly for 1 day forecasting; moreover, the regression model used, in spite of ANN, failed when it had to fit spiked high values of PM 10 concentration.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":44036513,"asset_id":14611521,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":33562204,"first_name":"Pierina","last_name":"Ielpo","domain_name":"cnr-it","page_name":"PierinaIelpo","display_name":"Pierina Ielpo","profile_url":"https://cnr-it.academia.edu/PierinaIelpo?f_ri=11976","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/33562204/15476951/16090269/s65_pierina.ielpo.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":896,"name":"Air Quality","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Air_Quality?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":8141,"name":"IT Management","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/IT_Management?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":11976,"name":"Air pollution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Air_pollution?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":26066,"name":"Neural Network","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Neural_Network?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":28235,"name":"Multidisciplinary","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Multidisciplinary?f_ri=11976"},{"id":181597,"name":"Root-Mean Square Error","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Root-Mean_Square_Error?f_ri=11976"},{"id":200998,"name":"Feedforward Neural Network","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Feedforward_Neural_Network?f_ri=11976"},{"id":216113,"name":"Atmospheric pollution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Atmospheric_pollution?f_ri=11976"},{"id":406051,"name":"Regression Model","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Regression_Model?f_ri=11976"},{"id":457266,"name":"Back Propagation Neural Network","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Back_Propagation_Neural_Network?f_ri=11976"},{"id":525017,"name":"Multivariate Regression","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Multivariate_Regression?f_ri=11976"},{"id":1211304,"name":"Artificial Neural Network","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Artificial_Neural_Network?f_ri=11976"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_38297087" data-work_id="38297087" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/38297087/Forecasting_PM10_in_metropolitan_areas_Efficacy_of_neural_networks">Forecasting PM10 in metropolitan areas: Efficacy of neural networks</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">Deterministic photochemical air quality models are commonly used for regulatory management and planning of urban airsheds.

Seven metals (Cu, Cd, Pb, Zn, Fe, Ca, and Mg) and six water-quality parameters (Acidity, PO4 (3-), SO4 (2-), NO3 (-) , Cl(-), and pH) were investigated in DRHRW sampled from 12 sampling points each from Ibadan (residential) and Lagos (industrial) environments, Nigeria. The results of these parameters were formulated into membership function fuzzy matrices based on four contamination classifications of high, marginal, low, and poor qualities using regulatory limits as criteria.

Seven metals (Cu, Cd, Pb, Zn, Fe, Ca, and Mg) and six water-quality parameters (Acidity, PO4 (3-), SO4 (2-), NO3 (-) , Cl(-), and pH) were investigated in DRHRW sampled from 12 sampling points each from Ibadan (residential) and Lagos (industrial) environments, Nigeria. The results of these parameters were formulated into membership function fuzzy matrices based on four contamination classifications of high, marginal, low, and poor qualities using regulatory limits as criteria. The products membership function matrices and weight matrices generated indices that classified the degree of anthropogenic activity impact on the sites. Results of FCA classified the DRHRW from residential environment as between high and marginal quality, whereas DRHRW from industrial environment is classified between marginal and low quality.

Monitoring stations are often situated in streets with significant traffic levels or in places where severe pollution problems are expected. Such measurements are naturally influenced by very local conditions and care must be taken in interpreting the results. This is especially important when the measurements are used for estimating urban air pollution levels or comparing air quality in different cities. Another frequent application of street measurements is for public information or warning the population of elevated pollution levels. Estimating the dangers of long-term exposure to air pollution means careful consideration must be given to how representative these measurements actually are. In this paper the influence of local conditions on air pollution concentrations is discussed, regarding especially the dependency of pollution levels on street configuration and meteorolgical parameters. The examples used are based on measurements from locations in Copenhagen and on model calculations using the Danish Operational Street Pollution Model (OSPM). It is shown that large concentration gradients can occur in street canyons with leeward concentrations far higher than windward concentrations. Thus, street measurements are site-dependent and not representative for urban areas.

In particular, this paper concerns the question of whether the concentration of nitrogen dioxide (NO,) outside the front door is a valid marker of the exposure of the child living at the address. The study includes 100 children living on streets with dense traffic in central parts of Copenhagen and 100 children living in rural areas. Preliminary results, based on 25% of the study subjects, suggest that both the outdoor NO,-concentration and the exposure of the children are two to three times higher in Copenhagen than in the rural districts. Moreover, the results suggest that the NO,-concentration outside the front door is a poor marker of the exposure of the children in Copenhagen, but a marker of some relevance for the exposure of the children in rural districts. The preliminary results must be treated with caution, as among other things, the analysis did not consider seasonal changes and indoor NO,-sources such as passive smoking. candles, and gas appliances.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/69335917" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="2bd2726373913aeb9e6c51c1ef71e65e" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":79471329,"asset_id":69335917,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/79471329/download_file?st=MTc0MDU1OTQwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="35116476" href="https://independent.academia.edu/%C3%85Hansen">Åse Hansen</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="35116476" type="text/json">{"id":35116476,"first_name":"Åse","last_name":"Hansen","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"ÅHansen","display_name":"Åse Hansen","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/%C3%85Hansen?f_ri=11976","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_69335917 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="69335917"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 69335917, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_69335917", });

In particular, this paper concerns the question of whether the concentration of nitrogen dioxide (NO,) outside the front door is a valid marker of the exposure of the child living at the address. The study includes 100 children living on streets with dense traffic in central parts of Copenhagen and 100 children living in rural areas. Preliminary results, based on 25% of the study subjects, suggest that both the outdoor NO,-concentration and the exposure of the children are two to three times higher in Copenhagen than in the rural districts. Moreover, the results suggest that the NO,-concentration outside the front door is a poor marker of the exposure of the children in Copenhagen, but a marker of some relevance for the exposure of the children in rural districts. The preliminary results must be treated with caution, as among other things, the analysis did not consider seasonal changes and indoor NO,-sources such as passive smoking. candles, and gas appliances.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":79471329,"asset_id":69335917,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":35116476,"first_name":"Åse","last_name":"Hansen","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"ÅHansen","display_name":"Åse Hansen","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/%C3%85Hansen?f_ri=11976","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}],"research_interests":[{"id":11976,"name":"Air pollution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Air_pollution?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":16664,"name":"Risk assessment","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Risk_assessment?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":28235,"name":"Multidisciplinary","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Multidisciplinary?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":54085,"name":"Denmark","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Denmark?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":64933,"name":"Child","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Child?f_ri=11976"},{"id":94701,"name":"Vehicle Emissions","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Vehicle_Emissions?f_ri=11976"},{"id":469018,"name":"Neoplasms","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Neoplasms?f_ri=11976"},{"id":570668,"name":"Urban Population","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Urban_Population?f_ri=11976"},{"id":622589,"name":"Risk Assessment","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Risk_Assessment-2?f_ri=11976"},{"id":1014147,"name":"Nitrogen Dioxide","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Nitrogen_Dioxide?f_ri=11976"},{"id":1312021,"name":"Environmental Exposure","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Environmental_Exposure?f_ri=11976"},{"id":1656539,"name":"Air Pollutants","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Air_Pollutants?f_ri=11976"},{"id":1819400,"name":"Cohort Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cohort_Studies?f_ri=11976"},{"id":2489700,"name":"Child preschool","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Child_preschool?f_ri=11976"},{"id":2947462,"name":"Rural Population","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Rural_Population?f_ri=11976"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_65774247" data-work_id="65774247" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/65774247/Detection_of_initial_damage_in_Norway_spruce_canopies_using_hyperspectral_airborne_data">Detection of initial damage in Norway spruce canopies using hyperspectral airborne data</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">Current broadband sensors are not capable of separating the initial stages of forest damage.

The current investigation evaluates the potential of hyperspectral data for detecting the initial stages of forest damage at the canopy level in the Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst) forests of Czech Republic. Hyperspectral canopy reflectance imagery and foliar samples were acquired contemporaneously for 23 study sites in August 1998. The sites were selected along an air pollution gradient to represent the full range of damage conditions in even-aged spruce forests. The changes in canopy and foliar reflectance, chemistry and pigments associated with forest damage were established. The potential of a large number of spectral indices to identify initial forest damage was determined. Canopy hyperspectral data were able to separate healthy from initially damaged canopies, and therefore provided an improved capability for assessment of forest physiology as compared to broadband systems. The 673-724 nm region exhibited maximum sensitivity to initial damage. The nine spectral indices having the highest potential as indicators of the initial damage included: three simple band ratios, two derivative indices, two modelled red-edge parameters and two normalized bands. The sensitivity of these indices to damage was explained primarily by their relationship to foliar structural chemical compounds, which differed significantly by damage class.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/65774247" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="4ab946f1787b3f836d1a2534157db57f" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":77225212,"asset_id":65774247,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/77225212/download_file?st=MTc0MDU1OTQwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="21297945" href="https://umbc.academia.edu/PCampbell">Petya Campbell</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="21297945" type="text/json">{"id":21297945,"first_name":"Petya","last_name":"Campbell","domain_name":"umbc","page_name":"PCampbell","display_name":"Petya Campbell","profile_url":"https://umbc.academia.edu/PCampbell?f_ri=11976","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/21297945/6685349/7552945/s65_petya.campbell.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_65774247 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="65774247"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 65774247, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_65774247", });

The temples are subject to various environmental influences which until recently have led to several collapses due in part to serious stone surface and infill loss. As a protection measure, open-sided shelters have been built over three of these temples. This work assesses the degrading influence of air pollution (nitrogen dioxide, ozone, particle matter, sulfur dioxide, and acidity in rain) on the temples, in combination and comparison with the influence of other environmental factors (relative humidity, temperature, precipitation, moisture, sea salt, wind) and in this respect evaluates the potential protective effect of the shelters.

A variation of this limestone was historically, and until very few years ago, a primary building material in Malta. The temples are subject to various environmental influences which until recently have led to several collapses due in part to serious stone surface and infill loss. As a protection measure, open-sided shelters have been built over three of these temples. This work assesses the degrading influence of air pollution (nitrogen dioxide, ozone, particle matter, sulfur dioxide, and acidity in rain) on the temples, in combination and comparison with the influence of other environmental factors (relative humidity, temperature, precipitation, moisture, sea salt, wind) and in this respect evaluates the potential protective effect of the shelters.

No standard exists to assess their analytic performance. Objective: We sought to analyze reported specific IgE results from different laboratories on the same serum samples for their accuracy and precision. Methods: Blinded serum samples (26) containing variable levels of specific IgE to 17 common aeroallergens were sent on 3 different occasions through normal channels to 6 laboratories that used 5 different test procedures. Six samples were presented as a dilution series. Laboratory-assay performance was assessed by analyzing the reported results (n = 12,708) by using ordinary least squares regression with slope coefficients, the t statistic, SEs, confidence intervals, and R 2 values. These were compared with a theoretic ideal assay as the reference. Results: Analysis revealed that one system used in two different laboratories performed nearly as well as the ideal standard, with an overall average slope (0.97; range, 0.91-1.01), SE (0.05; range, 0.02-0.16), R 2 value (93%; range, 0.64-0.99), and coefficient of variation (10.3%; range, 6%-14%). Extensive variability was observed in the other 4 laboratory-assay systems with respect to overall average slope (0.76; range, 0.11-1.24), SE (0.19; range, 0.03-0.95), R 2 value (53%; range, 0.00-0.98), and coefficient of variation (19%; range, 5%-49%). For some specific allergens, some laboratories-assays were not able to detect serial dilutions of the same sample. Conclusions: One commercial system used in two different laboratories performed nearly as well as the ideal standard. Four of the laboratories-assays for specific IgE antibodies demonstrated substandard overall performance with multiple instances of poor precision and accuracy, particularly for certain allergens, such as weeds and molds.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/52158396" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="6a6f0530f3770a12540ff4d36c0b0237" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":69552562,"asset_id":52158396,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/69552562/download_file?st=MTc0MDU1OTQwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="39683058" href="https://independent.academia.edu/PWilliams8">P.

Biological responses including those mediated by the aryl hydrocarbon (AhR) receptor as well as (anti-)estrogenicity and (anti-)androgenicity of samples from four Eastern European countries (Lithuania, Slovakia, Romania, and Serbia) were determined. To address the potential differences of specific toxic potencies of pollutant mixtures in ambient air in Eastern Europe, each country was characterized by a single more remote location that served to determine regional background conditions and one location in more urbanized and industrialized locations, which were defined as "impacted" areas. Besides samples from Lithuania, a significant gradient in concentrations of AhR-mediated potency from background and impacted localities was observed. Greatest potencies were measured in samples from impacted locations in Romania and Slovakia. Concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) that were quantified accounted for 3-33 % of the 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin equivalents determined by use of the bioassay. No significant estrogenic potency was detected but anti-estrogenic effects were produced by air from two background locations (Lithuania, Slovakia) and three impacted locations (Lithuania, Romania, and Serbia). Anti-androgenic potency was observed in all samples. The greatest antiestrogenic potency was observed at the background location in Slovakia. Anti-estrogenic and anti-androgenic potencies of studied air samples were probably associated with compounds that are not routinely monitored. The study documents suitability of passive air sampling for the assessment of specific toxic potencies of ambient air pollutants.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/48054411" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="55e214773e4ce98115eb2161f677feb0" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":66865726,"asset_id":48054411,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/66865726/download_file?st=MTc0MDU1OTQwMSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="35115550" href="https://independent.academia.edu/Anita%C3%89rsekov%C3%A1">Anita Érseková</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="35115550" type="text/json">{"id":35115550,"first_name":"Anita","last_name":"Érseková","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"AnitaÉrseková","display_name":"Anita Érseková","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/Anita%C3%89rsekov%C3%A1?f_ri=11976","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_48054411 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="48054411"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 48054411, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_48054411", });

The aim of this study was at analyzing the surface of hyphae and the surface of the lichens Evernia prunastri (unwashed and washed in distilled water). Mass percentage of 26 selected elements: C, O, Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, Sn, Sb, Hg, Pb and Bi was determined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDS). Mass percentage of: Na, Mg, V, Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, Zn, As, Cd, Sn, Sb, Hg, Pb was below the limit of detection of the applied method. The mass percentage of all other determined elements on the hyphae and surface of lichen was higher in unwashed samples, except for C, O, P, Fe, Cl, Ca and Cu. The elemental analysis of the unwashed lichen surface showed the prevalence of: O, C, Si, Cu and<br />Bi. Results obtained in the unwashed and washed lichen samples showed that the cleaning with water can be used in order to eliminate adhering materials. Indeed, most of elements of interest for the environmental contamination accumulated by the lichens were not<br />removed. SEM images showed particles that are flat, with irregular shape and edges, generally smooth and rounded indicating that the particles deposited were dry aerosol particles.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/39041288" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="5f67044b0408c7fdcab4cd347343b80c" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":59154583,"asset_id":39041288,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/59154583/download_file?st=MTc0MDU1OTQwMSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="65564700" href="https://unsa-ba.academia.edu/AlmirOlovcic">Almir Olovcic</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="65564700" type="text/json">{"id":65564700,"first_name":"Almir","last_name":"Olovcic","domain_name":"unsa-ba","page_name":"AlmirOlovcic","display_name":"Almir Olovcic","profile_url":"https://unsa-ba.academia.edu/AlmirOlovcic?f_ri=11976","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/65564700/17080536/19211384/s65_almir.olovcic.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_39041288 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="39041288"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 39041288, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_39041288", });

The aim of this study was at analyzing the surface of hyphae and the surface of the lichens Evernia prunastri (unwashed and washed in distilled water). Mass percentage of 26 selected elements: C, O, Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, Sn, Sb, Hg, Pb and Bi was determined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDS). Mass percentage of: Na, Mg, V, Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, Zn, As, Cd, Sn, Sb, Hg, Pb was below the limit of detection of the applied method. The mass percentage of all other determined elements on the hyphae and surface of lichen was higher in unwashed samples, except for C, O, P, Fe, Cl, Ca and Cu. The elemental analysis of the unwashed lichen surface showed the prevalence of: O, C, Si, Cu and\nBi. Results obtained in the unwashed and washed lichen samples showed that the cleaning with water can be used in order to eliminate adhering materials. Indeed, most of elements of interest for the environmental contamination accumulated by the lichens were not\nremoved. SEM images showed particles that are flat, with irregular shape and edges, generally smooth and rounded indicating that the particles deposited were dry aerosol particles.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":59154583,"asset_id":39041288,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":65564700,"first_name":"Almir","last_name":"Olovcic","domain_name":"unsa-ba","page_name":"AlmirOlovcic","display_name":"Almir Olovcic","profile_url":"https://unsa-ba.academia.edu/AlmirOlovcic?f_ri=11976","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/65564700/17080536/19211384/s65_almir.olovcic.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":524,"name":"Analytical Chemistry","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Analytical_Chemistry?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":10655,"name":"Scanning Electron Microscopy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Scanning_Electron_Microscopy?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":11976,"name":"Air pollution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Air_pollution?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":25445,"name":"Environmental Pollution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Environmental_Pollution?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":149132,"name":"Lichens","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Lichens?f_ri=11976"},{"id":209350,"name":"Atomic Absorption Spectrometry","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Atomic_Absorption_Spectrometry?f_ri=11976"},{"id":255058,"name":"Metals","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Metals?f_ri=11976"},{"id":899848,"name":"Biomonitors","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Biomonitors?f_ri=11976"},{"id":1014988,"name":"SEM/EDS","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/SEM_EDS-1?f_ri=11976"},{"id":1862438,"name":"Biomonitoring of Air Pollution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Biomonitoring_of_Air_Pollution?f_ri=11976"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_1007839" data-work_id="1007839" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/1007839/Asthma_and_air_pollution_in_the_Bronx_methodological_and_data_considerations_in_using_GIS_for_environmental_justice_and_health_research">Asthma and air pollution in the Bronx: methodological and data considerations in using GIS for environmental justice and health research</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">This paper examines methods of environmental justice assessment with Geographic Information Systems, using research on the spatial correspondence between asthma and air pollution in the Bronx, New York City as a case study.

Five and six ring PAHs were not detected, however four and three ring PAHs dominated. Three ring PAHs contributed 24 %, 42 % and 29 %, while four ring compounds contributed 53 %, 35 % and 61 % to total PAHs in the three brands. Carcinogenic PAH compounds were also present in the emissions, indicating the potential risks associated with the inhalation of coil smoke.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":50243621,"asset_id":29788278,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":16365150,"first_name":"Anita","last_name":"Lakhani","domain_name":"dei","page_name":"AnitaLakhani","display_name":"Anita Lakhani","profile_url":"https://dei.academia.edu/AnitaLakhani?f_ri=11976","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/16365150/24699842/23563408/s65_anita.lakhani.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":11801,"name":"Environmental Monitoring","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Environmental_Monitoring?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":11976,"name":"Air pollution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Air_pollution?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":43838,"name":"India","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/India?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":47884,"name":"Biological Sciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Biological_Sciences?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":58054,"name":"Environmental Sciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Environmental_Sciences?f_ri=11976"},{"id":122402,"name":"Nitrates","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Nitrates?f_ri=11976"},{"id":163173,"name":"Wind","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Wind?f_ri=11976"},{"id":255058,"name":"Metals","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Metals?f_ri=11976"},{"id":260118,"name":"CHEMICAL SCIENCES","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/CHEMICAL_SCIENCES?f_ri=11976"},{"id":380824,"name":"Ozone","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Ozone?f_ri=11976"},{"id":518609,"name":"Particulate Matter","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Particulate_Matter?f_ri=11976"},{"id":591104,"name":"Chlorine","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Chlorine?f_ri=11976"},{"id":955937,"name":"Quaternary Ammonium Compounds","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Quaternary_Ammonium_Compounds?f_ri=11976"},{"id":1014147,"name":"Nitrogen Dioxide","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Nitrogen_Dioxide?f_ri=11976"},{"id":1327853,"name":"Sulfur Dioxide","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Sulfur_Dioxide?f_ri=11976"},{"id":1656539,"name":"Air Pollutants","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Air_Pollutants?f_ri=11976"},{"id":1663770,"name":"Sulfates","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Sulfates?f_ri=11976"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_28911368" data-work_id="28911368" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/28911368/Evaluation_of_Contaminated_Air_Velocity_on_the_Formaldehyde_Removal_Efficiency_by_using_a_Biotrickling_Filter_Reactor">Evaluation of Contaminated Air Velocity on the Formaldehyde Removal Efficiency by using a Biotrickling Filter Reactor</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">Formaldehyde is a toxic, carcinogen, mutagen and teratogen compound that is widely released into the atmosphere worldwide.

The toxicity effect of formaldehyde on microorganisms is a serious obstacle on the path of using biological treatment methods. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of air velocity on the efficiency of a Biotrickling Filter Reactor (BTFR) for removal of formaldehyde from an air stream. A BTFR and Bioscience Laboratory Respirometer were employed for continuous and batch experiments, respectively. Three gas flow rates including 90, 291 and 1512 L/h were used to find out the effect of velocity on the formaldehyde removal efficiency of the BTFR. Monod model was modified to be capable of predicting the BTFR cases having very high formaldehyde removal efficiency. The results showed that for the gas flow rates of 90, 291 and 1512 L/h in BTFR, formaldehyde removal efficiency of 95, 97 and 99% were achieved, respectively. These results showed that higher air flow velocity lead to higher removal of formaldehyde from air in a BTFR. A very slow formaldehyde removal was observed during batch experiment where the gas velocity is set equal zero. This study demonstrated that the mass transfer in gas phase is an important step in formaldehyde treatment in a BTFR. Very slow formaldehyde removal in the batch system which can be ascribed to the very low mass transfer rate in gas phase confirms the fact that this rate is a controlling step in overall removal rate in BTFR.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/28911368" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="9fd9ec1271675971043d7359d65818dd" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":49345324,"asset_id":28911368,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/49345324/download_file?st=MTc0MDU1OTQwMSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="14042466" href="https://teknologimalaysia.academia.edu/AmirrezaTalaiekhozani">Amirreza Talaiekhozani</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="14042466" type="text/json">{"id":14042466,"first_name":"Amirreza","last_name":"Talaiekhozani","domain_name":"teknologimalaysia","page_name":"AmirrezaTalaiekhozani","display_name":"Amirreza Talaiekhozani","profile_url":"https://teknologimalaysia.academia.edu/AmirrezaTalaiekhozani?f_ri=11976","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/14042466/3874157/4589862/s65_amirreza.talaiekhozani.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_28911368 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="28911368"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 28911368, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_28911368", });

Two approaches of emission data generation with high spatial and temporal resolution are presented and compared. Main roads were processed as line sources and hot on-road emissions were calculated based on daily mean tra$c and emission factors distinguished for several road classes and vehicle types. Also, the disaggregation of national CORINAIR inventory has been performed on the basis of statistical information of fuel consumption and population density. The comparison of emission data obtained by these two approaches demonstrates a good agreement for total values, but a signi"cant di!erence for spatial distribution of the data. To ensure completeness of the data, to improve their spatial resolution and also to analyse the impact of the tra$c emissions, a combination of the two approaches was applied to generate the emission data used by a photochemical numerical system to simulate the atmospheric circulation and the air pollution pattern in Lisbon under summer meteorological conditions, having di!erent emission scenarios. It was possible to conclude that an air pollution abatement strategy is urgently needed and it should take into account the strong contribution of road tra$c emissions to the Lisbon air pollution levels.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/6990300" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="7ac39190cedee207c17e1671a2576af2" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":48642296,"asset_id":6990300,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/48642296/download_file?st=MTc0MDU1OTQwMSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="11871147" href="https://independent.academia.edu/BarrosNelson">Nelson Barros</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="11871147" type="text/json">{"id":11871147,"first_name":"Nelson","last_name":"Barros","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"BarrosNelson","display_name":"Nelson Barros","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/BarrosNelson?f_ri=11976","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/11871147/3419713/4021661/s65_nelson.barros.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_6990300 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="6990300"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 6990300, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_6990300", });

Two approaches of emission data generation with high spatial and temporal resolution are presented and compared. Main roads were processed as line sources and hot on-road emissions were calculated based on daily mean tra$c and emission factors distinguished for several road classes and vehicle types. Also, the disaggregation of national CORINAIR inventory has been performed on the basis of statistical information of fuel consumption and population density. The comparison of emission data obtained by these two approaches demonstrates a good agreement for total values, but a signi\"cant di!erence for spatial distribution of the data. To ensure completeness of the data, to improve their spatial resolution and also to analyse the impact of the tra$c emissions, a combination of the two approaches was applied to generate the emission data used by a photochemical numerical system to simulate the atmospheric circulation and the air pollution pattern in Lisbon under summer meteorological conditions, having di!erent emission scenarios. It was possible to conclude that an air pollution abatement strategy is urgently needed and it should take into account the strong contribution of road tra$c emissions to the Lisbon air pollution levels.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":48642296,"asset_id":6990300,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":11871147,"first_name":"Nelson","last_name":"Barros","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"BarrosNelson","display_name":"Nelson Barros","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/BarrosNelson?f_ri=11976","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/11871147/3419713/4021661/s65_nelson.barros.jpg"}],"research_interests":[{"id":55,"name":"Environmental Engineering","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Environmental_Engineering?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":896,"name":"Air Quality","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Air_Quality?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":11976,"name":"Air pollution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Air_pollution?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":13839,"name":"Temporal Resolution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Temporal_Resolution?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":60285,"name":"Atmospheric sciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Atmospheric_sciences?f_ri=11976"},{"id":162645,"name":"Population Density","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Population_Density?f_ri=11976"},{"id":236377,"name":"Spatial Distribution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Spatial_Distribution?f_ri=11976"},{"id":303826,"name":"Atmospheric Circulation","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Atmospheric_Circulation?f_ri=11976"},{"id":431154,"name":"Fuel Consumption","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Fuel_Consumption?f_ri=11976"},{"id":604200,"name":"Spatial resolution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Spatial_resolution?f_ri=11976"},{"id":762148,"name":"Emission Inventory","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Emission_Inventory?f_ri=11976"},{"id":841223,"name":"Road Traffic","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Road_Traffic?f_ri=11976"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_7656927" data-work_id="7656927" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/7656927/Modelling_traffic_air_pollution_in_road_tunnels">Modelling traffic air pollution in road tunnels</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">This paper presents two models for the description of air pollutant concentrations in road tunnels due to traffc.

We studied the impacts of an exotic pest/pathogen complex, the beech bark disease (BBD), in the Catskill Mountains of New York State, USA. In this region, BBD has caused a decline in the basal area of American beech (Fagus grandifolia Ehrh.) over the last 60 years and this decline has been accompanied by an increase in the basal area of sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.). We studied the impacts of the BBD on carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycling using a series of stands that represented a sequence of disease impact and beech replacement by sugar maple. Our study showed that these longterm changes in tree species composition can lead to important changes in C and N cycling in the ecosystem, including an increase in litter decomposition, a decrease in soil C:N ratio, and an increase in extractable nitrate in the soil and nitrate in soil solution. Rates of potential net N mineralization and nitrification did not change across the BBD sequence, but the fraction of mineralized N that was nitrified increased significantly. Many of the observed changes in ecosystem function are larger in magnitude than those attributed to climate change or air pollution, suggesting that the impacts of invasive pests and pathogens on tree species composition could be one of the most important factors driving changes in C and N cycling in these forests in the coming decades.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/15544375" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="43cbd9ec02f11cc686daefc714d5f553" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":43102594,"asset_id":15544375,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/43102594/download_file?st=MTc0MDU1OTQwMSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="34699429" href="https://independent.academia.edu/GaryLovett">Gary Lovett</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="34699429" type="text/json">{"id":34699429,"first_name":"Gary","last_name":"Lovett","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"GaryLovett","display_name":"Gary Lovett","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/GaryLovett?f_ri=11976","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_15544375 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="15544375"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 15544375, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_15544375", });

Many of the observed changes in ecosystem function are larger in magnitude than those attributed to climate change or air pollution, suggesting that the impacts of invasive pests and pathogens on tree species composition could be one of the most important factors driving changes in C and N cycling in these forests in the coming decades.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":43102594,"asset_id":15544375,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":34699429,"first_name":"Gary","last_name":"Lovett","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"GaryLovett","display_name":"Gary Lovett","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/GaryLovett?f_ri=11976","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}],"research_interests":[{"id":1512,"name":"Climate Change","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Climate_Change?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":11976,"name":"Air pollution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Air_pollution?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":20807,"name":"Nitrogen Cycle","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Nitrogen_Cycle?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":42073,"name":"North Eastern North America Archaeology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/North_Eastern_North_America_Archaeology?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":47884,"name":"Biological Sciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Biological_Sciences?f_ri=11976"},{"id":58054,"name":"Environmental Sciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Environmental_Sciences?f_ri=11976"},{"id":106333,"name":"Ecosystems","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Ecosystems?f_ri=11976"},{"id":151091,"name":"Nitrogen","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Nitrogen?f_ri=11976"},{"id":558317,"name":"Litter Decomposition","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Litter_Decomposition?f_ri=11976"},{"id":615464,"name":"Ecosystem Function","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Ecosystem_Function?f_ri=11976"},{"id":720462,"name":"Sugar Maple","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Sugar_Maple?f_ri=11976"},{"id":992161,"name":"Forest Soil Ecology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Forest_Soil_Ecology?f_ri=11976"},{"id":1970560,"name":"New York State","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/New_York_State?f_ri=11976"},{"id":2277560,"name":"Basal Area","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Basal_Area?f_ri=11976"},{"id":2315930,"name":"Beech Bark Disease","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Beech_Bark_Disease?f_ri=11976"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_18039813" data-work_id="18039813" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/18039813/Carbon_pricing_in_New_Zealand_implications_for_public_health">Carbon pricing in New Zealand: implications for public health</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">The likely health effects of climate change make it one of the most pressing global public health issues of our time.

To further define skin and lung responses to O 3 exposure, SKH-1 hairless mice were exposed to either 0.8 ppm of O 3 (a level occasionally reached in very polluted areas) or ambient air 6 h/day for 6 consecutive days. O 3 exposure resulted in the depletion of atocopherol in lung and plasma and induction in both skin and lung of heme oxygenase 1, cyclooxygenase 2, and proliferating cell nuclear antigen. O 3 -exposed animals showed a similar extent of upregulation of COX-2 and PCNA in lung and skin, whereas HO-1 was more responsive in skin than in lung (7-fold induction vs. 2-fold induction). In addition to these measures of response to oxidative stress, O 3 exposure led to the activation of nuclear factor nB measured as InBa phosphorylation in both tissues. We conclude that in this model, O 3 at high pollutant levels is able to affect both lung and skin biology, inducing depletion of a-tocopherol and inducing stress-related responses in both skin epidermis and respiratory tract epithelium.

Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in 2009-2010 among school students randomly selected from different areas of Isfahan city, the second largest and most air-polluted city in Iran. The association of air pollutants levels with hemoglobin, platelets, red and white blood cells (RBC and WBC, respectively) levels was determined by multiple linear and logistic regression analyses, after adjustment for age, gender, anthropometric measures, meteorological factors, and dietary and physical activity habits. Results: The study participants consisted of 134 students (48.5% boys) with a mean age of 13.10±2.21 years. While the mean Pollutant Standards Index (PSI) was at moderate level, the mean particulate matter ≤ 10 µm (PM 10) was more than twice the normal level. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that PSI and most air pollutants, notably PM 10 , had significant negative relationship with hemoglobin and RBC count, and positive significant relationship with WBC and platelet counts. The odds ratio of elevated WBC increased as the quartiles of PM 10 , ozone and PSI increased, however these associations reached to significant level only in the highest quartile of PM 10 and PSI. The corresponding figures for hemoglobin and RBC were in opposite direction. Conclusions: The association of air pollutants with hematologic parameters and a possible pro-inflammatory state is highlighted. The presence of these associations with PM 10 in a moderate mean PSI level underscores the necessity to reexamine environmental health policies for the pediatric age group.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/79370213" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="aeb53b2ad82b4280d2264b1e69d65769" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":86108393,"asset_id":79370213,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/86108393/download_file?st=MTc0MDU1OTQwMSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="159499107" href="https://independent.academia.edu/BusinessLandInternationalCooperation">Business Land International Cooperation</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="159499107" type="text/json">{"id":159499107,"first_name":"Business Land","last_name":"International Cooperation","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"BusinessLandInternationalCooperation","display_name":"Business Land International Cooperation","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/BusinessLandInternationalCooperation?f_ri=11976","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_79370213 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="79370213"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 79370213, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_79370213", });

Particles less than PM2.5 can penetrate the respiratory system, causing cardiopulmonary and other systemic diseases. Statistical regression models are usually used to assess air pollution impacts on human health. However, when there are databases missing, linear statistical regression may not process well and alternative data processing should be considered. Nonlinear Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) are not employed to research environmental health pollution even though another advantage in using ANN is that the output data can be expressed as the number of hospital admissions. This research applied ANN to assess the impact of air pollution on human health. Three well-known ANN were tested: Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Extreme Learning Machines (ELM) and Echo State Networks (ESN), to assess the influence of PM2.5, temperature, and relative humidity on

The raw data for such studies, including disease cases, environmental pollution concentrations and the reference population at risk, are typically measured at a variety of levels of spatial aggregation but are accumulated to a common geographical scale to facilitate statistical analysis. In this traditional approach heterogeneous exposure distributions within the aggregate areas may lead to biased inference, while individual attributes such as age, gender and smoking habits must either be summarized to provide area level covariate values or used to stratify the analysis. This paper presents a spatial regression analysis of the effect of traffic pollution on respiratory disorders in children. The analysis features data measured at disparate, non-nested scales, including spatially varying covariates, latent spatially varying risk factors, and case-specific individual attributes. The problem of disparate discretizations is overcome by relating all spatially varying quantities to a continuous underlying random field model. Case-specific individual attributes are accommodated by treating cases as a marked point process. Inference in these hierarchical Poisson/gamma models is based on simulated samples drawn from Bayesian posterior distributions, using Markov chain Monte Carlo methods with data augmentation.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/33690118" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="bb86657496ccb9f6cf28d8abd8150728" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":53693413,"asset_id":33690118,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/53693413/download_file?st=MTc0MDU1OTQwMSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="65964079" href="https://independent.academia.edu/RWolpert">Robert Wolpert</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="65964079" type="text/json">{"id":65964079,"first_name":"Robert","last_name":"Wolpert","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"RWolpert","display_name":"Robert Wolpert","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/RWolpert?f_ri=11976","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_33690118 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="33690118"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 33690118, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_33690118", });

The raw data for such studies, including disease cases, environmental pollution concentrations and the reference population at risk, are typically measured at a variety of levels of spatial aggregation but are accumulated to a common geographical scale to facilitate statistical analysis. In this traditional approach heterogeneous exposure distributions within the aggregate areas may lead to biased inference, while individual attributes such as age, gender and smoking habits must either be summarized to provide area level covariate values or used to stratify the analysis. This paper presents a spatial regression analysis of the effect of traffic pollution on respiratory disorders in children. The analysis features data measured at disparate, non-nested scales, including spatially varying covariates, latent spatially varying risk factors, and case-specific individual attributes. The problem of disparate discretizations is overcome by relating all spatially varying quantities to a continuous underlying random field model. Case-specific individual attributes are accommodated by treating cases as a marked point process. Inference in these hierarchical Poisson/gamma models is based on simulated samples drawn from Bayesian posterior distributions, using Markov chain Monte Carlo methods with data augmentation.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":53693413,"asset_id":33690118,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":65964079,"first_name":"Robert","last_name":"Wolpert","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"RWolpert","display_name":"Robert Wolpert","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/RWolpert?f_ri=11976","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}],"research_interests":[{"id":747,"name":"Econometrics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Econometrics?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":892,"name":"Statistics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Statistics?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":897,"name":"Environmental Epidemiology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Environmental_Epidemiology?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":5187,"name":"Statistical Analysis","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Statistical_Analysis?f_ri=11976","nofollow":true},{"id":11976,"name":"Air pollution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Air_pollution?f_ri=11976"},{"id":25445,"name":"Environmental Pollution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Environmental_Pollution?f_ri=11976"},{"id":54427,"name":"Environmental Risk","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Environmental_Risk?f_ri=11976"},{"id":129502,"name":"Poisson regression","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Poisson_regression?f_ri=11976"},{"id":192721,"name":"Risk factors","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Risk_factors?f_ri=11976"},{"id":308933,"name":"Spatial Regression","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Spatial_Regression?f_ri=11976"},{"id":339532,"name":"Bayesian hierarchical model","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Bayesian_hierarchical_model?f_ri=11976"},{"id":473837,"name":"Markov chain monte carlo methods","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Markov_chain_monte_carlo_methods?f_ri=11976"},{"id":620049,"name":"Risk Factors","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Risk_Factors-1?f_ri=11976"},{"id":2177640,"name":"Random Field","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Random_Field?f_ri=11976"},{"id":2187560,"name":"Data augmentation","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Data_augmentation?f_ri=11976"},{"id":2485951,"name":"Posterior distribution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Posterior_distribution?f_ri=11976"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_28472995" data-work_id="28472995" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/28472995/Air_pollution_control_through_kiln_recycling_by_pass_dust_in_a_cement_factory">Air pollution control through kiln recycling by-pass dust in a cement factory</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">Air pollution is a major problem in the industrial areas.

Cement dust is one of the important environmental pollutants. In this study the possibility of dust recycling especially kiln dust which has significant importance regarding air pollution in the cement plant, was examined. Tehran cement factory is one of the most important Iranian factories which is located in Tehran. This factory produces high volume of pollutants that are released to in environment. The possibility of reusing of kiln by pass returned dust has been examined in this factory. Different percentages of kiln by-pass dust of this factory were added to products and outcomes of its presence in parameters such as chemical compound, granulation, primary and final catch time, volume expansion, consumed water and resistance of mortar were surveyed. The result indicated that by adding the amounts of 3-8 dust the mortar resistance increase, but adding more than 15%, the mortar resistance has been decreased. Survey in consumed water proved that adding dust to cement, the trend for consuming water is decreased. After dust addition dust, primary and final catch time were compared in different samples and data which showed decrease in dust added samples. Cements with dust added showed increase in auto clave expansion. Overally, results proved that, the best percentage rate of dust addition to the cement was 15%.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/28472995" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="54db04347affc7e9a873e8a2b55a6a53" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":48822505,"asset_id":28472995,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/48822505/download_file?st=MTc0MDU1OTQwMSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="53398274" href="https://independent.academia.edu/AkramRanjbar">Akram Ranjbar</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="53398274" type="text/json">{"id":53398274,"first_name":"Akram","last_name":"Ranjbar","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"AkramRanjbar","display_name":"Akram Ranjbar","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/AkramRanjbar?f_ri=11976","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_28472995 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="28472995"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 28472995, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_28472995", });

outdoor air pollution because of the combined acute and chronic exposure effects of air pollution. We examined this hypothesis using a small-area level ecological correlation study. Methods-We used 1030 census enumeration districts as the unit of analysis and examined stroke deaths and hospital admissions from 1994 to 1998, with census denominator counts for people Ն45 years. Modeled air pollution data for particulate matter (PM 10 ), nitrogen oxides (NO x ), and carbon monoxide (CO) were interpolated to census enumeration districts. We adjusted for age, sex, socioeconomic deprivation, and smoking prevalence. Results-The analysis was based on 2979 deaths, 5122 admissions, and a population of 199 682. After adjustment for potential confounders, stroke mortality was 37% (95% CI, 19 to 57), 33% (95% CI, 14 to 56), and 26% (95% CI, 10 to 46) higher in the highest, relative to the lowest, NO x , PM 10 , and CO quintile categories, respectively. Corresponding increases in risk for admissions were 13% (95% CI, 1 to 27), 13% (95% CI, Ϫ1 to 29), and 11% (95% CI, Ϫ1 to 25). Conclusion-The results are consistent with an excess risk of stroke mortality and, to a lesser extent, hospital admissions in areas with high outdoor air pollution levels. If causality were assumed, 11% of stroke deaths would have been attributable to outdoor air pollution. Targeting policy interventions at high pollution areas may be a feasible option for stroke prevention.
