The latest in air quality monitoring

Networked air quality monitoring systems provide reliable, standardized data, flexible placement, and more equitable coverage than individual or crowdsourced sensors.

Explore the health impacts of coal dust and PM10 air pollution, how coal mining and transport contribute to emissions, and how to monitor and reduce exposure.

Learn how PM10 air pollution impacts your health, who is most at risk, and what practical steps you can take to reduce your exposure to dust-related air pollution.

Which workers face the most exposure to dust air pollution? Explore PM10 risks across industries and how to reduce adverse health impacts.

A deep dive into the latest air pollution statistics from the AQLI, revealing the regions most at risk and the need for equitable air quality monitoring.

Natural events like dust storms, seaspray, pollen, wildfires, and volcanoes contribute significantly to global PM10 air pollution levels. Even though many regulations exclude naturally occurring PM10, these coarse particles can still harm human health and worsen with climate change, making it important to monitor and protect against them.

Mono Lake’s lowered water levels have exposed its dust-emitting lakebed, creating some of the nation’s highest PM10 air pollution. High winds spread this dust across the Mono Basin, affecting air quality, wildlife, and public health.

Mining activities release PM10 dust that degrades air quality, endangers worker and community health, and damages nearby vegetation and water sources. Various engineering and safety measures, including the measurement of air pollution from mining operations, can help reduce exposure.

Agriculture contributes to both greenhouse gas and dust (PM10) air pollution emissions, which affect air quality, climate, and crop yields. Monitoring and managing these emissions can help create healthier farming environments.

Industrial facilities such as metallurgical, mineral, and wood product manufacturers release dust particles (PM10) that affect air quality and public health. Monitoring these emissions helps reduce exposure and protect nearby communities.
