Inhalation exposure to elevated concentrations of airborne particulate matter is a public health concern. Assessment of exposure can be enhanced through better knowledge of source-receptor relationships, which can be characterized through the inhalation in ...
The soluble fraction of atmospheric transition metals is particularly associated with health effects such as reactive oxygen species compared to total metals. However, direct measurements of the soluble fraction are restricted to sampling and detection uni ...
This dataset contains the bulk size-resolved chemical composition and mass concentration of non-refractory submicron aerosols (NR-PM1) measured during the MOSAiC expedition from October 2019 to July 2020. These include the mass concentrations of sulfate (S ...
Imaging the (sub)micron scale over large areas with high temporal resolution becomes increasingly necessary for the development and investigation of novel materials under realistic operation conditions. Small angle x-ray scattering imaging methods provide ...
Most works on AOP technologies aimed at removing contaminants from water have focused on the influence of experimental variables on the overall removal rate of specific target contaminants. Few studies have been devoted to proposing detailed kinetic models ...
In the decommissioning of damaged Fukushima Daiichi reactors, the melted and re-solidified fuel debris in the bottom of the reactor pressure vessel and primary containment vessel need to be cut into small pieces before removing them from reactor buildings. ...
OBJECTIVE To assess risks and costs of hospital admission associated with short term exposure to fine particulate matter with diameter less than 2.5 mu m (PM2.5) for 214 mutually exclusive disease groups. DESIGN Time stratified, case crossover analyses wit ...
Hyporheic flow transports fine particles into the riverbed, which can lead to clogging of the bed and in turn affect hyporheic flow and exchange processes. Field measurements and numerical simulations show the formation of a low-permeability layer (LPL) ne ...
Alternative composite materials with antibacterial activity have been developed by combining the porosity of carbon materials and the antibacterial activity of half sandwich (cymene)Ru-curcumin complexes. Different types of activated carbon were used, from ...
In time series analysis state-space models provide a wide and flexible class. The basic idea is to describe an unobservable phenomenon of interest on the basis of noisy data. The first constituent of such a model is the so-called state equation, which char ...
