Abstract

Population exposure to atmospheric pollution is commonly assessed through models. This study aims to compare estimates based on a high-resolution model and actual measurements. The considered modelling system, ATMO-Street, consists of a three-layer outdoor model operating at an hourly rate with a spatial resolution of approximately 10 m. The considered measurements were made by 38 candidate citizens carrying, for 1 week, portable devices, including an AE51 aethalometer and an Antilope low-cost sensor system developed at the Scientific Institute of Public Service (ISSeP). Their data were aggregated to match the model time and space resolutions. The zone of interest is the city of Liège in Belgium during parts of the year 2019. This research sheds light on the effectiveness of the atmospheric pollution model and personal exposure assessment methods. The findings contribute to a somewhat more comprehensive understanding of our exposure to air pollution, including indoors, with potential implications for public health and environmental policy.

通过移动测量和街道水平建模评估城市环境中室外和室内个人接触空气污染的情况

摘要大气污染的人口暴露通常通过模型进行评估。本研究旨在比较基于高分辨率模型和实际测量结果的估计值。所考虑的建模系统 ATMO-Street 由三层室外模型组成，每小时运行一次，空间分辨率约为 10 米。所考虑的测量由 38 名候选市民进行，他们携带便携式设备（包括 AE51 空气热量计和由公共服务科学研究所 (ISSeP) 开发的 Antilope 低成本传感器系统）进行了为期一周的测量。他们的数据经过汇总，以符合模型的时间和空间分辨率。研究区域为比利时列日市，时间为 2019 年的部分时间。这项研究揭示了大气污染模型和个人暴露评估方法的有效性。研究结果有助于更全面地了解我们暴露于空气污染（包括室内污染）的情况，对公共卫生和环境政策具有潜在影响。

期刊介绍： Air Quality, Atmosphere, and Health is a multidisciplinary journal which, by its very name, illustrates the broad range of work it publishes and which focuses on atmospheric consequences of human activities and their implications for human and ecological health. It offers research papers, critical literature reviews and commentaries, as well as special issues devoted to topical subjects or themes. International in scope, the journal presents papers that inform and stimulate a global readership, as the topic addressed are global in their import. Consequently, we do not encourage submission of papers involving local data that relate to local problems. Unless they demonstrate wide applicability, these are better submitted to national or regional journals. Air Quality, Atmosphere & Health addresses such topics as acid precipitation; airborne particulate matter; air quality monitoring and management; exposure assessment; risk assessment; indoor air quality; atmospheric chemistry; atmospheric modeling and prediction; air pollution climatology; climate change and air quality; air pollution measurement; atmospheric impact assessment; forest-fire emissions; atmospheric science; greenhouse gases; health and ecological effects; clean air technology; regional and global change and satellite measurements. This journal benefits a diverse audience of researchers, public health officials and policy makers addressing problems that call for solutions based in evidence from atmospheric and exposure assessment scientists, epidemiologists, and risk assessors. Publication in the journal affords the opportunity to reach beyond defined disciplinary niches to this broader readership.
