The results, published in an open-access paper in the journal Science , suggest that the focus of efforts to mitigate ozone formation and toxic chemical burdens need to be adjusted, the authors suggested. But volatile chemical products used in common solvents and personal care products are literally designed to evaporate.

The found that three of the urban form metrics (contiguity, circularity, and vegetation) have a statistically significant relationship with urban NO 2 ; their combined effect could be substantial. Overall, our findings demonstrate that urban form has a statistically significant relationship with urban NO 2 concentrations.

DOE selected this project to improve local air quality in the Houston-Galveston area, which is currently designated as a National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) 8-hour ozone non-attainment area.

It is also a precursor to the formation of ground-level ozone and particulate matter, and as a cause of acid rain. Among the other findings of the study were: Urban circularity (“compactness”) is not a statistically significant predictor of NO 2 concentration. More work is needed in this regard. —Bechle et al.

The largest systematic study ever conducted of human volunteers exposed to ozone air pollution has found no evidence of effects on the heart in its healthy, older participants, but did find effects on the volunteers’ ability to breathe, even at low ambient levels. Possible pathways by which ozone may cause adverse health effects.

All people learn how to type on existing keyboards, so even a superior keyboard design can never gain a foothold. Nevertheless, Article 89 of the GDPR allows them to retain data “for scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes" in “the public interest." Most organizations delete data after a certain period.

There is substantial variability in vehicle-to-vehicle emissions due to differences in engine design (PFI, spray-guided GDI, wall-guided GDI, etc.), We estimate ozone and SOA formation potential. mg/mi), suggesting improvements in engine design and calibration. engine calibration (spark timing, valve timing, etc.), of the data.
