Journal ArticleDOI
Source apportionment of airborne nanoparticles in a Middle Eastern city using positive matrix factorization
TL;DR: Size-resolved measurements of particle number distributions (PNDs) and concentrations (PNCs) in the 5-1000 nm size range in Kuwait could serve as reference data to design more detailed field studies in the future and treat these sources in dispersion modelling and health impact assessment studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Release of ultrafine particles from three simulated building processes
TL;DR: In this article, a fast response differential mobility spectrometer (Cambustion DMS50) was used to measure particle number concentrations (PNC) and size distributions (PNDs) at a sampling frequency of 10 Hz in a confined laboratory room providing controlled environment and nearsteady background PNCs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ground-fixed and on-board measurements of nanoparticles in the wake of a moving vehicle
TL;DR: In this paper, an integrated experimental methodology has been applied to measure number and size distributions of particles in the 5-560nm size range in the wake of a diesel car running at different speeds.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The advancement in airborne and satellite-based remote sensing technology has signified a leap in the systematic monitoring of NBS performance, as well as provided a robust way for the spatial and temporal comparison ofNBS intervention versus its absence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Air quality monitoring using mobile low-cost sensors mounted on trash-trucks: Methods development and lessons learned
Priyanka deSouza,Amin Anjomshoaa,Fábio Duarte,Fábio Duarte,Ralph A. Kahn,Prashant Kumar,Carlo Ratti +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a technique to identify aerosol hotspots and to assess the generalizable map of fine and coarse particle number concentrations, to understand qualitatively the contribution of local and regional sources across the region sampled.
