Exposure information in environmental health research: Current opportunities and future directions for particulate matter, ozone, and toxic air pollutants

Abstract: Understanding and quantifying outdoor and indoor sources of human exposure are essential but often not adequately addressed in health-effects studies for air pollution. Air pollution epidemiology, risk assessment, health tracking and accountability assessments are examples of health-effects studies that require but often lack adequate exposure information. Recent advances in exposure modeling along with better information on time-activity and exposure factors data provide us with unique opportunities to improv… Show more

“…A limitation of this and other time-series studies on O 3 is the validity of exposure assessment for O 3 , because there is lack of personal O 3 measurements 45. The measurements were performed outdoors while people spend most of their time indoors.…”

“…Environmental, meteorological and microclimatic influences, which are changing dynamically, add to the complexity as well as people moving in space and time, showing individual behavioural patterns (McKone et al, 2008). This means personal exposure is a function of concentration and time (Nuckols et al, 2004).…”
