Air pollution and associated human mortality: the role of air pollutant
... Abstract. Increases in surface ozone (O3 ) and fine particulate matter (≤ 2.5 µm aerodynamic diameter, PM2.5 ) are associated with excess premature human mortalities. We estimate changes in surface O3 and PM2.5 from pre-industrial (1860) to present (2000) and the global present-day (2000) premature ...
