Changes in air pollution during COVID-19 lockdown in Spain: A multi-city study

Alvaro Briz-Redon et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has become one of the largest crises of the 21st Century, leading the Spanish Government to declare a nationwide lockdown. A study found that the short-term lockdown significantly reduced atmospheric levels of pollutants like NO2, while also leading to an increase in O-3 levels.

Impact of SARS-CoV-2 lockdown and de-escalation on air-quality parameters

G. Viteri et al.

Summary: This study reports the short-term effects on air quality in several continental cities in Spain during the COVID-19 crisis, showing significant decreases in primary pollutants and smaller changes in particulate matter due to the sudden paralysis of industry and transport. With the gradual de-escalation and increase in traffic density, primary pollutants are slowly recovering, serving as a potential behavioral model for other continental sites in understanding future crises.

Air quality and COVID-19 adverse outcomes: Divergent views and experimental findings

Leonardo Becchetti et al.

Summary: The study found a strong link between air pollution and COVID-19 outcomes, suggesting that both long-term exposure effects and short-term consequences are influenced. Policy implications should be drawn based on a rational assessment of these findings.

Responses of decline in air pollution and recovery associated with COVID-19 lockdown in the Pearl River Delta

Siyu Wang et al.

Summary: The Guangdong government implemented lockdown measures on January 23, 2020, to reduce the spread of COVID-19 and significantly decrease anthropogenic emissions. Under the influence of emissions and meteorology, air quality improved during the lockdown period, with O3 concentration and primary PM2.5 being sensitive to emissions reduction.

Global mortality from outdoor fine particle pollution generated by fossil fuel combustion: Results from GEOS-Chem

Karn Vohra et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates the significant impact of the fossil fuel component of PM2.5 on global premature mortality. The steeper concentration-response function slope at lower concentrations leads to higher estimates in Europe and North America, while the slower drop-off in slope at higher concentrations results in higher estimates in Asia.

Long-term analysis of the relationships between indoor and outdoor fine particulate pollution: A case study using research grade sensors

Daniel L. Mendoza et al.

Summary: This study measured indoor and outdoor air quality using research-grade sensors and found that different pollution events have varying impacts on indoor air quality. Possible intervention strategies were proposed to mitigate contaminant intrusion during elevated pollution events, highlighting the importance of considering outdoor air pollution when studying indoor air quality.
