- W1994421879 abstract "Atmospheric pollutants change our environment in a variety of ways. Specifically, airborne pollution is known to harm forests, crops, wildlife, aquatic ecosystems, and freshwater. In addition to damaging the natural environment, air pollution also affects buildings and the cultural material heritage such as outdoor sculptures and carvings. Direct effects of atmospheric pollutants on local and regional air quality and therefore on human health are a major concern. The European Environment Agency (EEA 2013) reported that despite the significant decrease of emissions over the past decades, the levels of air pollutants still frequently exceed the thresholds set by the European Union Air Quality Directives. In many parts of Europe, the levels of sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx), ammonia (NH3), and non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOCs) are becoming a public health risk issue. The same applies to particulate matter (PM) levels. The World Health Organization has recently reported that black carbon (BC) may not be a major toxic component of fine PM, but it may operate as a universal carrier of a wide variety of toxic chemicals to different parts of the body (Janssen et al. 2012). High levels of pollutants, especially tropospheric ozone (O3), adversely affect human health by causing respiratory problems and vegetation and ecosystem damage (EPA). Ozone is formed from the atmospheric degradation of NMVOCs, such as alkanes, alkenes, and oxygenated compounds (aldehydes and esters), in the presence of NOx and sunlight. Ground-level ozone is also a potent greenhouse gas (GHG) that modifies the atmospheric radiative forcing and, thus, global temperatures. GHGs such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) and, in a lesser extent, nitrous oxide (N2O) and fluorinated compounds are behind pressing global environmental problems such as the warming of Earth's atmosphere. Another climate forcer of combustion-related air pollution is BC aerosols (commonly referred to as “soot”), which directly absorb both the incoming and reflected sunlight and the infrared radiation, increasing the surface air temperature. This Special Issue (SI) of Environmental Science and Pollution Research addresses some of those problems, with special emphasis on tropospheric reactivity, gas monitoring, and the potential impacts of air pollution on climate and people and biota. Drawing from selected contributions to the 2013 Energy and Environment Knowledge Week (E2KW International Congress, Toledo, Spain), the SI gathers novel and timely research on how atmospheric pollutants modify our environment, also highlighting the many links between energy Research Development and Demonstration (RD&D) policies and GHG emissions." @default.
