Reliable estimates of externality costs—such as the costs arising from premature mortality
due to exposure to fine particulate matter (PM 2.5)—are critical for policy analysis. To …

For the purposes of develo** optimal emissions control strategies, efficient approaches
are needed to identify the major sources or groups of sources that contribute to elevated …

Lead (Pb) poses a significant risk to infants and children through exposure to contaminated
soil and dust. However, there is a lack of information on Pb speciation and distribution at the …

Background: Residential combustion (RC) and electricity generating unit (EGU) emissions
adversely impact air quality and human health by increasing ambient concentrations of fine …

Abstract We estimated PM 2.5-related public health impacts/ton emitted of primary PM 2.5,
SO 2, and NO x for a set of power plants in the Mid-Atlantic and Lower Great Lakes regions …

Aviation activities represent an important and unique mode of transportation, but also impact
air quality. In this study, we aim to quantify the impact of aircraft on air quality, focusing on …

As power production from renewable energy and natural gas grows, closures of some coal-
fired power plants in Texas become increasingly likely. In this study, the potential effects of …

The high-order decoupled direct method in three dimensions for particulate matter (HDDM-
3D/PM) has been implemented in the Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) model to …

In this study, we modeled concentrations of fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) and ozone (O 3)
attributable to precursor emissions from individual airports in the United States, develo** …

Photochemical ozone pollution is a serious air quality problem under weak synoptic
conditions in many areas worldwide. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are largely …
