Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on the health impacts of air pollution, encompassing both outdoor and indoor environments. It examines the association between various air pollutants, including lead, particulate matter (PM2.5, PM10), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and ozone (O3), and adverse health outcomes such as neurodevelopmental issues, stroke, cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, and oral tissue inflammation. The journal also investigates factors influencing air quality, such as industrial emissions, legacy contamination, livestock odor, and indoor ventilation practices, and explores the use of modeling and machine learning for air quality forecasting and risk assessment.
