Air Pollution and Population Exposure
摘要
After high blood pressure and smoking, air pollution is the third-largest risk factor for death globally (Murray et al. in Lancet 396:1223–1249, 2020). Air pollution can therefore be described as a global “pandemic” that should arguably be monitored and addressed with the same intensity with which the COVID-19 pandemic has been. Remote sensing and cloud computing technologies allow us to do so.
