Linking traffic congestion, spatiotemporal pollutant patterns, and LEZ siting in a megacity: a case study of Jakarta

An Empirical Assessment of Traffic Volume Influence on Roadside NO₂ Concentration: A Micro-Scale Statistical Analysis in Makassar, Indonesia

Rapid urban motorization in Makassar has intensified roadside exposure to traffic-related pollutants. This study empirically evaluates the direct statistical relationship between traffic volume and roadside nitrogen dioxide (NO2) concentration along a major arterial corridor. Field measurements were conducted during th...

Assessing the Relationship Between Traffic Activity and Urban Air Pollution in Dhaka Using QGIS and Emission Factor Methods

Bad air quality is one of the most serious issues cities are struggling with today, especially in rapidly growing megacities such as Dhaka. Increasing traffic volume and congestion make vehicular emissions one of the major sources of urban air pollution. This study examines the spatial correlation between traffic activ...

Spatio-Temporal Dynamics of Urban Thermal-Pollution Interactions in Delhi and Its Surrounding Areas: A Remote Sensing and GAM Modelling Approach.

Urban thermal dynamics, influenced by air pollution and meteorological variability, are critical for assessing urban resilience in rapidly urbanizing megacities. LST serves as a vital indicator for understanding these interactions under changing climatic and environmental conditions. This study investigates the long-te...

Changes of Urban and Suburban Air Quality Patterns during the Pandemic Year 2020: Longitudinal Evidence from Three Romanian Citie

Urban areas must develop and implement air pollution-reduction strategies in order to comply with progressively stricter air quality standards. Various measures imposed during the lockdowns associated to COVID-19 pandemic worldwide made the year 2020 an exceptional period for global air pollution: air pollutant emissio...

Assessment of PM₂.₅ related health impacts along a major traffic corridor in Lagos using the WHO AirQ⁺ model

Air pollution from fine particulate matter (PM₂.₅) poses a significant environmental health challenge in rapidly urbanizing African cities. Lagos, Nigeria, experiences severe traffic congestion and elevated ambient PM₂.₅ concentrations, yet localized estimates of associated health impacts remain limited. This study app...
