Global health benefits of policies to reduce on-road vehicle pollution through 2040
Air pollution from road transport-related tailpipe emissions is a well-documented risk to human health. This study assesses the health impacts of these emissions under business-as-usual and various policy scenarios across 186 countries and territories, including 13 135 urban areas, until 2040, at a 1 km resolution. We evaluate emissions for 15 scenarios based on different combinations of key emission control measures. We use Goddard Earth Observi…
Commentary
Recent advances in data science and urban environmental health research utilise large-scale databases (100s-1000s of cities) to explore the complex interplay of urban characteristics such as city form and size, climate, mobility, exposure, and environmental health impacts. Cities are still hotspots of air pollution and noise, suffer urban heat island effects and lack of green space, which leads to disease and mortality burdens preventable with be…
Response of the ozone-related health burden in Europe to changes in local anthropogenic emissions of ozone precursors
Exposure to ozone (O 3 ) is associated with many human health problems, resulting in tens of thousands of premature deaths annually in Europe. This study quantifies the impact of changes in anthropogenic emissions of O 3 precursors on premature deaths from long-term O 3 exposure in Europe and the impact of emissions changes during 2005–2015 using the nested-grid chemical transport model Goddard Earth Observing System (GEOS)-Chem and its adjoint. …
Impacts of sectoral, regional, species, and day-specific emissions on air pollution and public health in Washington, DC
We present a novel source attribution approach that incorporates satellite data into GEOS-Chem adjoint simulations to characterize the species-specific, regional, and sectoral contributions of daily emissions for 3 air pollutants: fine particulate matter (PM2.5), ozone (O3), and nitrogen dioxide (NO2). This approach is implemented for Washington, DC, first for 2011, to identify urban pollution sources, and again for 2016, to examine the pollution…
