Data mining paradigm in the study of air quality
(Springer, 2020-03)
Air pollution is a serious global problem that threatens human life and health, as well as the environment. The most important aspect of a successful air quality management strategy is the measurement analysis, air quality ...
Carbon monoxide emitted from the city of Buenos Aires and transported to neighbouring districts
(Planta Piloto de Ingeniería Química, 2010-03)
Air pollutants emitted in a city may reach neighbouring areas. This paper describes and applies a methodology for estimating the CO transported from the City of Buenos Aires (CBA) to neighbouring districts. The methodology ...
CARBON MONOXIDE CONCENTRATION IN A STREET CANYON OF BUENOS AIRES CITY (ARGENTINA)
(Springer, 2000-12)
The analysis of three years of 8-h CO concentration values registered in a deep street canyon downtown shows high frequency of values that exceed WHO health protection guidelines. An inverse relationship between opposing ...
Spread of COVID-19, Meteorological Conditions and Air Quality in the City of Buenos Aires, Argentina: Two Facets Observed during Its Pandemic Lockdown
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2020-09)
This work studied the spread of COVID-19, the meteorological conditions and the air quality in a megacity from two viewpoints: (1) the correlation between meteorological and air quality (PM10 and NO2) variables with ...
Atmospheric Particulate Matter Variability during 2014 at Buenos Aires City (Argentina) Comparing Ground-Based Measurements and Satellite Data
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2017-07)
Air pollution is a major environmental risk to health. In particular, exposure to high concentrations of small particulates (PM10 and PM2.5) is related to increased mortality and morbidity. In Argentina, only at Buenos ...
Biochemical and quality parameters of southern king crab meat after transport simulation and re-immersion
(Elsevier, 2021-01)
The trade of live crustacean species is a unique practice that attracts costumers by ensuring crab freshness. This seafood is consumed worldwide because of its nutritional value and positive impact on human health. However, ...
Water quality in equine production in Buenos Aires province, Argentina
(Springer, 2020-02-24)
One of the key factors for equine production is water, its availability in sufficient quantity and adequate quality. Studies about water quality in equine production worldwide are limited and even more limited in Argentina ...
Atmospheric particulate pollution in South American megacities
(National Research Council Canada-NRC Research Press, 2021-04-15)
Air pollution is one of the major problems caused by urban growth, and both industrial and automobile emissions have been the main causes of air quality deterioration in cities since the beginning of the 20th century. ...
Influence of emission inventory resolution on the modeled spatio-temporal distribution of air pollutants in Buenos Aires, Argentina, using WRF-Chem
(Elsevier, 2022-01)
The temporal and spatial resolution of the emission inventory included into an air quality model plays a key role in the appropriate representation of air pollution events and background atmospheric chemistry. Here, we use ...
Practical use of the ISCST3 model to select monitoring site locations for air pollution control
(Inderscience Enterprises, 2000-05)
We present an objective methodology for selection of the minimum number of sampling sites required to register the highest concentration values of air pollutants emitted from a continuous point source. The methodology is ...
