Spatial patterns of gas flaring stations and the risk to the respiratory and dermal health of residents of the Niger Delta, Nigeria
This study assessed the health risk for respiratory and dermal related conditions as a result of residents’ exposure to air emissions from gas flaring stations (GFS). The spatial patterns of the GFS were evaluated. Air pollutants from the eight GFS were monitored and medical data were obtained from...
