Ambient Particulate Matter Size Distributions Drive Regional and Global Variability in Particle Deposition in the Respiratory Tract

Ambient Particulate Matter Size Distributions Drive Regional and Global Variability in Particle Deposition in the Respiratory Tract

Abstract Human exposure to airborne particulate matter (PM) increases the risk of negative health outcomes; however, substantial uncertainty remains in quantifying these exposure‐response relationships. In particular, relating increased risk of mortality to exposure to PM with diameters smaller than...
