Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Aerosol pollution is the world’s single greatest environmental risk to health. Some 6.5 million people across the world die prematurely every year from exposure to outdoor and indoor aerosol pollution, and nine out of ten people breathe outdoor aerosols polluted beyond acceptable WHO guidelines levels. Rapid population growth, unsustainable urban development, and the increased energy demand by transportation, industrial, commercial, and residential activities have led to large amounts of emissions into the atmosphere, subjecting residents to the health risks associated with harmful pollutants and imposing heavy economic and social costs.
The aim of this Special Issue is to present original research articles and reviews that assess carbonaceous aerosols in the atmosphere, including both experimental and monitoring studies and mathematical/numerical modeling studies. Topics to be covered include aerosol observations, the chemical characterization of particulate matter, and human exposure assessment.
