tailieunhanh - Epidemiological Study on Effect of Air Pollution on Human Health (Adults) in Delhi

Airborne suspended particulate matter can be of primary origin, . emitted directly into the atmosphere or of secondary origin, . formed in the atmosphere from gaseous species by either homogeneous or heterogeneous chemical reactions. Due to these different emission sources, particles have different chemical composition and size distributions. Depending on their size, particles have a different potential to be transported over either long or short distances [1]. Primary particles can be produced from either natural or anthropogenic sources. In Europe the main natural sources are sea spray [2] and soil resuspension by wind [3]. Also, in the Mediterranean basin, Saharan dust [4] and volcano emissions [5]. | Epidemiological study on Effect of Air Pollution on Human Health Adults in Delhi MINISTRY OF ENVIRONMENT FORESTS Website http July 2012 ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH MANAGEMENT SERIES EHMS 01 2012 Epidemiological Study on Effect of Air Pollution on Human Health Adults in Delhi cpcb CENTRAL POLLUTION CONTROL BOARD MINISTRY OF ENVIRONMENT FORESTS Parivesh Bhawan East Arjun Nagar Delhi - 110032 CPCB 250 copies 2012 Prepared Published by P R Division Central Pollution Control Board on behalf of Sh. .
