In the fields of pollution sciences (air or water), source apportionment models aim to re-construct the emissions from different sources of pollutants based on ambient data registered at monitoring sites [32].
Finally, although the proposed models identify the most important non-weather-related variables for VOCs, the use of such models in different geographical regions, countries, times, climates, and locations with markedly different sources of pollutants will require caution.
To improve our ability to predict the evolutionary patterns involved in response to different pollutants we need to compare the evolutionary responses of replicates of the same population of origin, subjected to different sources of pollution.
We used a variety of pollutants for the analyses, because different pollutants may point toward differing properties of the aerosol and also represent different sources of air pollution.
While different sources of air pollution have been associated with increased risk of adverse health, it is traffic pollutants that show the greater heterogeneity in concentration within urban areas [ 25].
By investigating PM10 2.5 components, including endotoxin, we were furthermore able to explore indicators of different sources of PM10 2.5 while controlling for the important co-pollutants PM2.5 and LAC.
However, several studies demonstrated an increased level of 24 hours urinary 8-oxodG among workers exposed to different sources of genotoxicants like coke oven emissions and ambient air pollutants [ 27, 40].
The Gowanus's primary sources of pollutants, the department claims, are former industrial plants, not sewers.
