Sources and properties of non-exhaust particulate matter from road traffic: a review.
TL;DR: It is concluded that with the exception of brake dust particles which may be identified from their copper (Cu) and antimony (Sb) content, unequivocal identification of particles from other sources is likely to prove extremely difficult, either because of the lack of suitable tracer elements or compounds, or of the interactions between sources prior to the emission process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of brake wear particles and derivation of a quantitative tracer for brake dust at a major road
TL;DR: In this article, size-segregated analysis of atmospheric aerosol particles sampled with micro-orifice uniform deposit impactors (MOUDI) in March 2007 in London was performed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimation of particle resuspension source strength on a major London Road
TL;DR: In this article, a new combination of existing methods for indirect estimation of resuspension emission factors for Marylebone Road, London, a busy multi-lane highway in a street canyon is presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, the results of measurements of particle number concentration and size distribution made in a major London park as well as on the BT Tower, 160 m aloft, were reported.
