Assessment of aerosol emission sources in a traffic site combining on-line and off-line measurements. In: ICEH 2019 – International Congress on Environmental Health, ESTeSL, Lisbon (Portugal), September 25-27, 2019.http://hdl.handle.net/10400.21/10769Project Interreg Med REMEDIO.In urban areas, evidence from epidemiological and experimental studies show that traffic-related air pollution has adverse effects on respiratory and cardiovascular systems. Urban air pollution accounts for 3% of mortality from cardiopulmonary disease and 1% of mortality from acute respiratory infections in children under 5 years, worldwide. Therefore, disease and mortality associated with vehicle emissions represent a substantial challenge in public health. Source apportionment, using receptor models, is an essential tool to support the implementation of the European and Member States legislation on air quality and principally to reduce the impact of exposure to Air Particulate Matter (PM) on human health. This work was developed in the framework of the Interreg Med REMEDIO project and aims to assess the aerosol emission sources in an urban traffic site, located in the outskirts of Lisbon.engEnvironmental healthAir pollutionUrban landscapeAerosol emissionTrafficPortugalLisboa e Vale do TejoProject Interreg Med REMEDIOconference object
