A major unknown has remained the quantity of long-range transported smoke from Africa in relation to local ... -
Air pollution and child health impacts of decarbonization in 16 global cities: Modelling study
Milner, James; Hughes, Robert; Chowdhury, Sourangsu; Picetti, Roberto; Ghosh, Rakesh; Yeung, Shunmay; Lelieveld, Jos; Dangour, Alan D.; Wilkinson, Paul (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Most research on the air pollution-related health effects of decarbonization has focused on adults. We assess the potential health benefits that could be achieved in children and young people in a global sample of 16 cities ... -
Air pollution impacts on in-hospital case-fatality rate of ischemic stroke patients
Keller, Karsten; Haghi, Seyed Hamed Rastguye; Hahad, Omar; Schmidtmann, Irene; Chowdhury, Sourangsu; Lelieveld, Jos; Münzel, Thomas; Hobohm, Lukas (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background: A growing body of evidence suggests that air pollution exposure is associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular diseases.

Black carbon aerosol reductions during COVID-19 confinement quantified by aircraft measurements over Europe
Krüger, Ovid O.; Holanda, Bruna A.; Chowdhury, Sourangsu; Pozzer, Andrea; Walter, David; Pöhlker, Christopher; Hernández, Maria Dolores Andrés; Burrows, John P.; Voigt, Christiane; Lelieveld, Jos; Quaas, Johannes; Pöschl, Ulrich; Pöhlker, Mira L. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The abrupt reduction in human activities during the first lockdown of the COVID-19 pandemic created unprecedented atmospheric conditions. To quantify the changes in lower tropospheric air pollution, we conducted the BLUESKY ... -
An environmental justice analysis of air pollution in India
deSouza, Priyanka N.; Chaudhary, Ekta; Dey, Sagnk; Ko, Soohyeon; Németh, Jeremy; Guttikunda, Sarath; Chowdhury, Sourangsu; Kinney, Patrick; Subramanian, S.V.; Bell, Michelle L.; Kim, Rockli (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Due to the lack of timely data on socioeconomic factors (SES), little research has evaluated if socially disadvantaged populations are disproportionately exposed to higher PM2.5 concentrations in India. We fill this gap ... -
A global review of the state of the evidence of household air pollution's contribution to ambient fine particulate matter and their related health impacts
Chowdhury, Sourangsu; Pillarisetti, Ajay; Oberholzer, Alicia; Jetter, James; Mitchell, John; Cappuccilli, Eva; Aamaas, Borgar; Aunan, Kristin; Pozzer, Andrea; Alexander, Donee (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Direct exposure to household fine particulate air pollution (HAP) associated with inefficient combustion of fuels (wood, charcoal, coal, crop residues, kerosene, etc.) for cooking, space-heating, and lighting is estimated ... -
Indoor Air Pollution and Health: Bridging Perspectives from Developing and Developed Countries
Pillarisetti, Ajay; Ye, Wenlu; Chowdhury, Sourangsu (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Much of the global population spends most of their time indoors; however, air pollution measurement, a proxy of exposure, occurs primarily outdoors. This fundamental disconnect between where the people are and where the ... -
