Global study tracks air pollution and CO₂ emissions across thousands of cities worldwide

Tracking air pollution and CO2 emissions in 13,189 urban areas worldwide using large geospatial datasets

Air pollution and climate change are urgent global concerns, with urban areas contributing heavily to both air pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions. Here we calculate fine particulate matter, nitrogen dioxide, and ozone concentrations and fossil-fuel carbon dioxide emissions per capita in 13,189 urban areas worldwide from 2005 to 2019 and analyze correlations between trends for these pollutants, leveraging recently-developed global datasets. …

In a sweeping new study of more than 13,000 urban areas worldwide, researchers have mapped air pollution levels and carbon dioxide emissions, providing comprehensive global analysis of urban environmental quality.  The research led by George Washington University, in collaboration with scientists from Washington University in St. Louis and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, used data from satellite observations, ground-based measur…

Major study of global air pollution leads to online air quality dashboard

New research has led to the development of a global database of annual, population-weighted concentrations for PM2.5, NO₂ and ozone (O3), as well as fossil fuel CO₂ (FFCO2) emissions across 13,189 urban areas. The study, undertaken by a team from George Washington University, focused on the years spanning from 2005-2019, using data from satellite observations, ground-based measurements and computer models to measure city-level air pollution and …
