TL;DR: In this article, the main ozone precursors were identified using the Ozone Isopleth Package for Research (OZIPR) trajectory model coupled with chemical mechanism Statewide Air Pollution Research Center (SAPRC).
Journal ArticleDOI
Traffic air quality index.
TL;DR: The paper presents a method of determining the TAQI and defines the degrees of harmfulness of emitted pollution and proposes a classification specifying a potential threat to human health based on theTAQI value and shows an example of calculating the TAZI value for real urban streets.
