Spatial Correlation of Satellite-Derived PM2.5 with Hospital Admissions for Respiratory Diseases

Respiratory diseases, particularly allergic rhinitis, are spatially and temporally correlated with the ground PM2.5 level. A study of the correlation between the two factors should therefore account for spatiotemporal variations. Satellite observation has the advantage of wide spatial coverage over...
