Low-cost air quality sensors: The good, the bad, and the ugly. Preliminary findings from the QUANT study Open
Low-cost air pollution sensors (LCS) have a potentially vital role to play in tackling air pollution. Their affordability facilitates the creation of dense networks, which coupled with their intrinsic high time resolution offers a vast spa…
Source apportionment analysis at an urban background site, a roadside site, and the resulting roadside increment in London, UK Open
Traffic remains a key source of PM2.5 and PM10 in urban environments and contributes to PM in the form of exhaust related particles and non-exhaust related particles (Grigoratos and Martini, 2014). It is expected that due to traffic fleet …
Five-year PM Chemical Composition and Organic Aerosol (OA) Sources in a European Megacity, London Open
Improving air quality in urban areas is essential since 97% of European cities exceed the annual PM2.5 value of the WHO guidelines (10 μg/m3). Therefore, in order to mitigate adverse health outcomes of air pollutants, it is extremely impor…
Sources of particle number concentration and noise near London Gatwick Airport Open
There is increasing evidence of potential health impacts from both aircraft noise and aircraft-associated ultrafine particles (UFP). Measurements of noise and UFP are however scarce near airports and so their variability and relationship a…
