It is considered likely that biomass burning contributed to the mass concentration of BC values at HPO, particularly in spring (Liu et al. 2013).
Five factors (i.e., SOA, secondary nitrate, secondary sulfate, transportation and biomass burning) contributed more than 85% to PM2.5 for the 2009 2015 period.
Indoamerican burning contributed to the fire ecology of grasslands and lower and mid-montane dry forests, especially where ponderosa pine was the dominant overstory species, but the extent of this contribution is difficult to quantify.
In Piracicaba, sugar cane burning contributed 60% of the fine-mode aerosol mass.
In addition, method-specific trends showed that charcoal burning contributed to most of the rise in overall suicide rates after 1998-2000 [ 20].
In addition, Marley et al. [ 39] observed large amounts of biomass burning contributing to carbonaceous aerosols at Tecamac and that Mexico City was significantly impacted by emissions from fossil fuels in addition to local and regional burning.
Our hazard evaluation suggests that incense burning contributes to indoor air pollution and could be harmful to human health.
Currently, the main energy options employed to maintain essential living standards, such as electricity, hot water and refrigeration, come from fossil fuels whose burning contributes to high environmental impacts like global warming.
Because only a fraction of the IAP is deposited indoors, biomass burning contributes to ambient air pollution (Shindell et al. 2011).
This biomass burning has a significant impact on the global atmospheric chemistry; as such biomass energy is only partly renewable as its burning contributes to climate variability not to mention the air pollution in the regional area [ 4, 38].
