Abstract

In previous decades, progress has been made in both exposure science and health monitoring, paving the way for new developments in air pollution health risk assessment. Various studies on the role of gaseous air pollutants from the perspective of human health have been conducted, including several key studies that focused on criteria pollutants: tropospheric ozone, nitrogen dioxide, and sulfur dioxide. Although both natural and anthropogenic sources contribute to air pollution, this chapter focuses on recent developments in the estimation of health risks and burdens of anthropogenic criteria pollutants.
