How can airborne transmission of Covid-19 indoors be minimised?
During the rapid rise in COVID-19 illnesses and deaths globally, and notwithstanding recommended precautions, questions are voiced about routes of transmission for this pandemic disease. Inhaling small airborne droplets is probable as a third route of infection, in addition to more widely recognized transmission via larger respiratory droplets and direct contact with infected people or contaminated surfaces. While uncertainties remain regarding t…
Atmospheric ozone levels encountered by commercial aircraft on transatlantic routes
Temporal and spatial patterns in northern midlatitude atmospheric ozone levels measured outside the cabin by MOZAIC aircraft are investigated to consider trends in human exposure to ozone during commercial flights. Average and 1 h peak ozone levels for flights during 2000 to 2005 range from 50 to 500 ppb, and 90 to 900 ppb, respectively, for flights between Munich and New York ( N = 318), or Chicago ( N = 372), or Los Angeles ( N = 175). Ozone le…
Exploring the consequences of climate change for indoor air quality
Climate change will affect the concentrations of air pollutants in buildings. The resulting shifts in human exposure may influence public health. Changes can be anticipated because of altered outdoor pollution and also owing to changes in buildings effected in response to changing climate. Three classes of factors govern indoor pollutant levels in occupied spaces: (a) properties of pollutants; (b) building factors, such as the ventilation rate; a…
Lifecycle greenhouse gas implications of US national scenarios for cellulosic ethanol production
The Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 set an annual US national production goal of 39.7 billion l of cellulosic ethanol by 2020. This paper explores the possibility of meeting that target by growing and processing Miscanthus × giganteus. We define and assess six production scenarios in which active cropland and/or Conservation Reserve Program land are used to grow to Miscanthus. The crop and biorefinery locations are chosen with consid…
Epidemiologic studies and control programs in alcoholism. II. State and municipal alcoholism programs and their relationship to health services
Deposition on indoor surfaces is an important removal mechanism for tobacco smoke particles.We report measurements of deposition rates of environmental tobacco smoke particles in a room-size chamber.The deposition rates were determined from the changes in measured concentrations by correcting for the effects of coagulation and ventilation.The air flow turbulent intensity parameter was determined independently by measuring the air velocities in th…
