Characterizing the annual cycle of African dust transport to the Caribbean Basin and South America and its impact on the environment and air quality

TL;DR: In this article, the authors characterize the complete annual cycle of dust transport to the western Atlantic by linking the Barbados record to multi-year records of airborne particulate matter less than 10 µm diameter (PM10) measured in air quality programs at Cayenne (French Guiana) and Guadeloupe.

Urban Air Pollution And Asthma And Copd Hospital Emergency Room Visits

TL;DR: Among children, traffic related PM2.5 had delayed effects, whereas among the elderly, several types of particles had effects that were more immediate, suggesting that the mechanisms of the respiratory effects of air pollution, and responsible pollutants, differ by age group.
