Source apportionment of atmospheric particles in the UK and Pakistan
TL;DR: In this paper, Dichotomous Stacked Filter Units (DSFUS) were run simultaneously with Hi-vol samplers for seasonal sampling at urban and rural locations throughout Birmingham (UK).
Book ChapterDOI
Human health implications of air pollution emissions from transport
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the contribution of various surface transport options to emissions of locally acting air pollutants and reviewed the evidence that those pollutants are having an impact on public health.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non-linearity of secondary pollutant formation estimated from emissions data and measured precursor-secondary pollutant relationships
TL;DR: In this article , the authors compared the trends in airborne concentrations of nitrate, sulfate, and SOC at sites in southern England compared with emissions and concentration trends for sulfur dioxide (SO2), oxides of nitrogen (NO x ), and non-methane VOC, and showed some increased ratios of concentrations to emissions, strongly suggestive of nonlinearity in the primary-secondary pollutant relationships for nitrate but not the other pollutants.

TL;DR: The project, Pollution of the Urban Midlands Atmosphere (PUMA), is funded by Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) of the UK through a thematic programme on Urban Regeneration and the Environment (URGENT), which aims at a better understanding of natural processes in the shallow sub-surface, urban ecology, hydrological balances and atmospheric dynamics and chemistry in urban environments as discussed by the authors.
