PM2.5/PM10 ratio characteristics over urban sites of India

B. Spandana et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the PM2.5/PM10 ratio in different urban areas of India over a five-year period, finding the highest ratio in winter and post-monsoon seasons, especially in the Indo-Gangetic Plain region. The limited meteorological data used was unable to fully explain the variability in the ratio, and estimated values were consistently higher than measured values.

Sources, environmental levels, and health risks of PM2.5-bound polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in energy-producing cities in northern China

Li Guo et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the major emission sources related to air pollution from long-term exploitation, transportation, and use of coal and oil. It found that the bioaccessibility should be considered when assessing the carcinogenic risk of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

A health impact assessment of long-term exposure to particulate air pollution in Thailand

William Mueller et al.

Summary: This study quantified the health and economic impacts of long-term exposure to ambient PM2.5 in Thailand for 2016, finding that PM2.5 exposure was responsible for 50,019 deaths and 508,918 DALYs, with significant economic costs. Continued reductions in PM2.5 exposure are recommended to prevent diseases.
